Abstract
Ten children of acute cerebellar ataxia, who were admitted to the hospital from January 1965 to February 1968, were clinically and virologically studied. Correlation of occurrence between acute cerebellar ataxia and aseptic meningitis was not definite. Most patients were male. Antecedent infections were noticed in 4 cases. Virological studies revealed that ECHO 6 virus was associated with acute cerebellar ataxia in 3 patients. One case was associated with varicella.
