Description |
Congenital ocular moror apraxia (COMA) is thought to be caused by a dysfunction of the frontal eye field. Joubert syndrome is a syndrome which is characterized by COMA, pigmentary retinopathy, global developmencal delay and molar tooth sign upon magnetic resonance imaging. We observed six cases of COMA, Joubert syndrome, and ependymoma which compressed the cerebeller vermis. We will describe these clinical characteristics and discuss the hypothesis that congenital ocular moror apraxia was caused by a dysfunction ofcelebeller vermis. |
