摘要
Two sisters presented with olivopontocerebellar atrophy, neuronal loss in the substantia nigra, intranuclear ubiquitin-, ataxin-2-positive inclusions in neurons, and severe demyelination and axon loss of the cerebral white matter with no accompanying inflammatory pathology. The genetic study demonstrated a 22/36 CAG triplet expansion in the SCA2 gene in one of the sisters; SCA1, SCA3, SCA6, SCA7, SCA8, SCA12, SCA17 and DRPL were ruled out in this patient. The present report shows that severe cerebral white matter pathology may occur in the context of SCA2. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
