Abstract:
Autoimmune cerebellar ataxia (ACA) is a rare neuroimmune disease and a treatable cause of sporadic ataxia. In recent years, a series of new autoantibodies against cerebellum have been discovered, and the relevant diagnostic standards have been updated. Based on the clinical research results of Chinese patients with ACA, new data have been provided for the etiology classification of ACA. Although most patients respond to immunotherapy, improving long-term prognosis requires better treatment strategies.
