Abstract

Cerebellar ataxia with neuropathy and vestibular areflexia syndrome (CANVAS) refers to a multi-system neurodegenerative disorder, with middle-age onset, which mainly presents with progressive imbalance. Imbalance is attributable to isolated or combined impairment of the cerebellar, proprioceptive, and vestibular systems. Chronic spasmodic cough, which usually precedes neurological symptoms, serves as a useful diagnostic clue to CANVAS. Diagnostic criteria have been proposed for CANVAS in 2016, based on 3 cardinal features. In 2019, a biallelic intronic AAGGG repeat expansion (AAGGG)exp in the replication factor complex subunit 1 gene (RFC1) was identified as a genetic contributor to CANVAS, and (ACGGG)exp in RFC1 was subsequently confirmed as a causative factor for CANVAS. Genetic screening for RFC1 has shown that CANVAS is an overlooked entity in patients with cerebellar ataxia or sensory neuropathy, which highlights more restricted phenotypes that exclusively involve one of the aforementioned systems. The phenotypic spectrum of RFC1-related disorders has been expanding since the discovery of (AAGGG)exp or (ACGGG)exp in the RFC1. Studies have reported atypical features, including parkinsonism, motor neuron involvement, cognitive decline, and sleep disorders. Currently, a wide variety of clinical conditions associated with biallelic intronic pentanucleotide repeat expansion in RFC1 are classified as RFC1 CANVAS/spectrum disorder.
