Clinical Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy BMMNC in Cerebellar Ataxia

September 16, 2014 updated by: Dr. Sachin Jamadar, Chaitanya Hospital, Pune

Clinical Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Bone Marrow Derived Mono Nuclear Stem Cell (BMMNCs) in Cerebellar Ataxia .It is Self Funded (Patients' Own Funding) Clinical Trial

Cerebellar ataxia is a complex motor disturbance, which, can occur as a result of many diseases and presents with symptoms of an inability to coordinate balance, gait, extremity and eye movements. Lesions to the cerebellum can cause dyssynergia, dysmetria, dysdiadochokinesia, dysarthria and ataxia of stance and gait. Deficits are observed with movements on the same side of the body as the lesion (ipsilaterally).
