Degenerative cerebellar ataxia with autoantibodies against glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) is a rare disorder and may represent a subset of ataxias previously classified as idiopathic. The authors report a patient with progressive cerebellar ataxia, insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, and GAD antibodies who responded to i.v. immunoglobulins.
伴有抗谷氨酸脱羧酶(GAD)自身抗体的退行性小脑共济失调是一种罕见疾病,可能代表了先前归类为特发性共济失调的一个亚型。作者报告了一名患有进行性小脑共济失调、胰岛素依赖型糖尿病且存在GAD抗体的患者,该患者对静脉注射免疫球蛋白有反应。
