Abstract
AbstractSpinocerebellar ataxia 27 B (SCA27B) is caused by the expansion of GAA repeats in the intron of the fibroblast growth factor 14 (FGF14) on chromosome 13 and is inherited dominantly. An 80‐year‐old male visited the hospital complaining of ataxic gait and harboring 229 pure GAA repeat units in the FGF14. Almost all the clinical features were similar to that of SCA27B. However, the patient initially presented with episodic grip myotonia, which has not been previously reported.
