Abstract/OtherAbstract:
This article presents a case of cerebellar cognitive affective syndrome to remind the general physician of the profound effect that the cerebellum exerts over executive functioning, visuospatial cognition, personality and linguistic ability. Described in a variety of underlying cerebellar pathologies, it is important that this often overlooked syndrome is remembered, as the cognitive effects of cerebellar pathology can often be more disabling than the motor effects (Garrard et al, 2002; Maeshima and Osawa, 2007).
