Abstract EN
Acute cerebellitis is a rare diagnosis found mostly in the pediatric population.
The etiology, in most instances, is unknown.
We describe the case of a 61-year-old woman who presented with acute mental status changes, signs of cerebellar dysfunction, and MRI findings of acute cerebellitis.
A brief review of the existing literature and comparison of our case with previous reports are also presented.
