Parkinsonism due to spinocerebellar ataxias – http://id.who.int/icd/entity/1775568396

Parkinsonism may occur in the setting of spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA), which is an autosomal dominant disorder associated with cerebellar dysfunction. Most subtypes of SCA are associated with ataxia, but some subtypes such as SCA2, SCA3, SCA6, SCA8, and SCA17 are associated with Levodopa-responsive Parkinsonism.
