The authors report a family (brother, 22 years and sister 24 years) with late-onset BNS (> 10 years). They had subnormal intelligence; the cerebellar ataxia was progressive over 2 years with early functional dependence. Puberty was attained in a brother with testosterone injections, while the girl had primary amenorrhoea. There were no associated visual complaints. They both had diffuse periventricular white-matter hyperintensities in cerebral cortex and diffuse cerebellar atrophy in the MRI.NeurologyLate-onset Boucher-Neuhauser Syndrome (late BNS) associated with white-matter changes: a report of two cases and review of literature
