Reversible cerebellocerebral disorder in primary hemochromatosis.
Reversible cerebellar dysfunction is described in a patient with primary hemochromatosis. The electroencephalographic abnormalities initially recorded became normal after repeated phlebotomies. Both cerebellar dysfunction and electroencephalographic changes were present without clinical signs of hepatic failure, but may be related to the altered hepatic function tests.
