Dopa-responsive parkinsonism without cerebellar ataxia in spinocerebellar ataxia 6

•While SCA6 patients mainly show pure cerebellar ataxia, some cases have parkinsonism.•In SCA6 patients, levodopa responsivity to parkinsonism is seldom reported.•We show an SCA6 patient with dopa-responsive parkinsonism without cerebellar ataxia.
