Popis: Background We aim to delineate the progression of cerebellar syndrome in children with phosphomannomutase-deficiency (PMM2-CDG) using the International Cooperative Ataxia Rating Scale (ICARS). We sought correlation between cerebellar volumetry and clinical situation. We prospectively evaluated PMM2-CDG patients aged from 5 to 18 years through ICARS at two different time points set apart by at least 20 months. We reviewed available MRIs and performed volumetric analysis when it was possible. Results From the eligible 24, four patients were excluded due to severe mental disability (n = 2) and supratentorial lesions (n = 2). Two different ICARS evaluations separated by more than 20 months were available for 14 patients showing an improvement in the cerebellar syndrome: ICARS1: 35.71 versus ICARS2: 30.07 (p
