Abstract

It was calculated that in the 962 family members of 36 patients with ataxic cerebral palsy there were 75 (8\%) with a history of neurodevelopmental disorder and 31 (3\%) with a major congenital malformation. This was not significantly greater than expected, and does not support the hypothesis of a genetic non-Mendelian role in the aetiology of ataxic cerebral palsy.
