Spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) is a group of inherited disorders characterized by progressive deterioration of cerebellar function, eventually leading to impaired motor coordination, ataxic symptoms, and other neurological manifestations. The main clinical manifestations are ataxia (inability to control movements), dysmetria (impaired distance judgment during movement), nystagmus (involuntary oscillatory eye movements), and decreased muscle tone. As the disease progresses, speech impairment and difficulty swallowing are also observed. SCA can be either inherited or acquired, but the inherited form is the most common. Since this disease has many subtypes, each associated with a specific genetic mutation, differentiation between them is essential for appropriate therapy and prognosis.<\/p>\n
