Clinical features of autoimmune cerebellar ataxia related to neuronal antibodies
ACA can be induced or aggravated by infection. The detection of neuronal antibodies is crucial for the precise diagnosis of ACA. Cerebellar system symptoms, such as dizziness, unsteady walking, nystagmus, and dysarthria, are the first and main manifestations of ACA. The head magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in patients with ACA may be normal or may exhibit abnormalities including cerebellar atrophy and nonspecific white matter changes. Immunotherapy could be effective in most patients with ACA.
