Young-onset cerebellar syndromes are quite interesting and challenging for treating clinicians. While dealing with such cases, a clinician should be aware of rare possible causes too. We report a rare case of Gordon Holmes syndrome-an autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxia with endocrinal abnormalities.
