Isolated vitamin E deficiency and progressive ataxia.

R J Rayner1, R Doran, S H Roussounis.   

Abstract

A case of progressive spinocerebellar syndrome due to isolated vitamin E deficiency is reported. Measurement of the vitamin E concentration in serum should be included when investigating all children with unexplained, progressive ataxia, even in the absence of malabsorption. Replacement treatment in patients with a vitamin E deficiency can arrest or improve the associated neurological disorder.
