Successful neuropsychological rehabilitation in a patient with Cerebellar Cognitive Affective Syndrome.
The objective of this case study was to describe the neuropsychological rehabilitation of a 16-year-old patient who presented a Cerebellar Cognitive Affective Syndrome (CCAS) following a bilateral cerebellar hemorrhage. The patient presented severe and diffuse cognitive deficits, massive behavioral disorders, and emotion regulation difficulties. The cognitive rehabilitation was performed in the...
متن کاملLocation of lesion determines motor vs. cognitive consequences in patients with cerebellar stroke
Cerebellar lesions can cause motor deficits and/or the cerebellar cognitive affective syndrome (CCAS; Schmahmann's syndrome). We used voxel-based lesion-symptom mapping to test the hypothesis that the cerebellar motor syndrome results from anterior lobe damage whereas lesions in the posterolateral cerebellum produce the CCAS. Eighteen patients with isolated cerebellar stroke (13 males, 5 female...
متن کاملReply: Cognition in SCA21 reflects developmental and adult onset cerebellar cognitive affective syndrome.
Sir, In their Letter to the Editor, Pedro Braga-Neto et al. (2015) emphasized the cerebellum’s major role in cognition and behaviour. The letter echoes our recent description of cerebellar impairments in patients with spinocerebellar ataxia type 21 (SCA21) caused by TMEM240 gene mutations (Delplanque et al., 2014). The affected patients’ cognitive and neurobehavioural features clearly correspon...
متن کاملCognition in SCA21 reflects developmental and adult onset cerebellar cognitive affective syndrome.
Sir, We read with interest the article by Delplanque et al. (2014) entitled: ‘TMEM240 mutations cause spinocerebellar ataxia type 21 with mental retardation and severe cognitive impairment’. The striking feature of the clinical presentation was not only the cerebellar ataxia and cerebellar volume loss on imaging, but also the cognitive and neurobehavioural impairments that were pervasive, and— ...
متن کاملPost-infarct cerebellar cognitive affective syndrome: a case report.
Post Infarct cerebellar cognitive affective syndrome is a rare disorder, characterized by cognitive impairment in the domains of memory, language, visuo-spatial functioning and affect after cerebellar stroke. We report a case of young female who developed mood alteration and cognitive disturbance following isolated cerebellar infarct. We, therefore, advocate a potential role of cerebellum in re...
