Journal ArticleDOI
A syndrome of congenital retinal dystrophy and saccade palsy--a subset of Leber's amaurosis.
A. T. Moore,D. S. Taylor +1 more
TL;DR: Three children who presented in infancy with a severe visual defect and absent or barely recordable electroretinograms, with relatively well preserved visually evoked cortical potentials, were subsequently found to have vertical and horizontal saccade palsies with head thrusts but relatively good visual acuity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Motor neuron disease with slow eye movements and vertical gaze palsy.
TL;DR: Two middle‐aged patients with motor neuron disease showed common eye movement disorders and intellectual impairment in the later stage of the illness, which appear to raise a possibility of a distinct group of multiple system degenerations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spinocerebellar ataxia type 2 olfactory impairment shows a pattern similar to other major neurodegenerative diseases.

TL;DR: The results show significant impairment in SCA2 patients on all olfactory measurements, and the pattern of o aroma deficits found suggests that they have much in common with those reported for other neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Supranuclear ophthalmoplegia in olivopontocerebellar degeneration
Arnulf H. Koeppen,Mary B. Hans +1 more
TL;DR: Autosomal dominant olivopontocerebellar degeneration was diagnosed in a family of Scottish ancestry by clinical examination and autopsy and the anatomic lesion responsible for the defect of saccadic eye movements remains to be established.
Book ChapterDOI
The neuroanatomical basis of slow saccades in spinocerebellar ataxia type 2 (Wadia-subtype).
TL;DR: It is concluded that degeneration of the EBNs is the most likely cause for the slowing of horizontal saccades in spinocerebellar ataxia type 2, Wadia-subtype (SCA2).
