Abstract
Genetic causes of ataxia are numerous. These disorders often present in the pediatric population, and finding a precise diagnosis can be quite challenging. Recent advances in molecular diagnosis make it difficult for the clinician to determine what investigations to undertake and in which order. This article presents 3 cases of pediatric onset ataxia with a genetic basis that will help to formulate and show a practical approach to this important clinical problem.
