Abstrakt: We describe a case of severe adult-onset progressive tremulous cerebellar ataxia with pyramidal signs associated with a rare homozygous truncating pathogenic variant in the SYNE1 gene (p.Arg5371*). This contrasts the initial views on SYNE1-related ataxia as a relatively benign, slowly progressive condition, with important implications for clinic-genetic counselling.
