摘要
We describe patients from five generations of a pedigree with mutations in the spinocerebellar ataxia type 2 gene (SCA2). The predominant clinical features observed included both appendicular and truncal ataxia, dysarthria, slowness of saccades, and impaired optokinetic responses. Successive generations demonstrated both earlier ages of onset as well as increasing numbers of trinucleotide repeat sequences. The signs found in this family are compared with the description of other families with SCA2 as well as with other types of dominantly inherited spinocerebellar ataxias.
