Abstract:
Fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome(FXTAS)is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by a pre-mutationof the fragile X mental retardation protein 1(FMR1)gene on the X chromosome,and its low incidence rate and complex clinical manifestations often lead to misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis,which requires improving the awareness of this disease among clinicians.This article reviews the recent research advances in the pathogenesis,clinical manifesta-tions,pathological features,and diagnostic criteria of FXTAS.
