The cerebellum has extensive connections with motor and nonmotor areas of the nervous system. These nonmotor areas include the cognitive, affective, and perceptual areas of the central nervous system. Extensive literature has emerged cognitive documents and mood disorders in patients with cerebellar dysfunction. Perceptual disturbances consistent with cerebellar connections with perceptual areas have not been as widely documented. . We present the case of a 58-year-old female presenting with new onset isolated auditory hallucinations and incidental findings of cerebellar calcifications.
In light of this case, we discuss an expanding body of evidence that suggests the likely role of the cerebellum in perceptual functioning.
小脑与神经系统的运动和非运动区域有着广泛的联系。这些非运动区域包括中枢神经系统的认知、情感和感知区域。大量文献报道了小脑功能障碍患者的认知障碍和情绪障碍。与小脑和感知区域的联系一致的感知障碍尚未得到广泛记录。我们报告了一例58岁女性,出现新发孤立性幻听及小脑钙化的偶然发现。
鉴于此病例,我们讨论了越来越多的证据,这些证据表明小脑在感知功能中可能发挥的作用。
