VIDEO 7 2 Multiple system atrophy, cerebellar type

VIDEO 72 Multiple system atrophy, cerebellar type. Video shows the 56yearold woman discussed in CASE 71 who developed imbalance and walked as if she were drunk. She veered toward one side while walking, had two episodes of syncope, and her speech and hand dexterity were subsequently involved. On examination, she has hypomimic facial expression, hypermetric saccades, dysmetria on fingernosefinger tests, bradykinesia in finger taps, and ataxic gait with variable footsteps. Her postmortem brain pathology demonstrated glial cytoplasmic inclusions along with olivopontocerebellar atrophy, confirming the diagnosis of multiple system atrophy, cerebellar type.
