β¦ Synopsis
Disease Causing Hereditary Late-Onset Ataxia with Only Minimal White Matter Changes: A Report of Two Sibs ataxia. Additional-yet not obligate-clinical features (palatal tremor, kyphoscoliosis) and more or less distinctive MRI findings (subtle white matter changes, marked atrophy of brainstem, and spinal cord) might constitute clues that hint towards this specific diagnosis.
