Résumé

Paroxysmal ataxia is typically characterized by early-onset attacks of cerebellar ataxia. Late-onset cerebellar ataxia (LOCA) comprises a group of neurodegenerative disorders mainly characterized by adult-onset progressive cerebellar ataxia. A deep intronic expansion of a GAA triplet in the gene encoding fibroblast growth factor 14 has recently been identified as a frequent cause of LOCA.
