Ocular telangiectasia was present in all patients. Ataxia, oculomotor apraxia, and dysarthria were other common features. Involuntary movements and strabismus were each observed in 52.4%. Cerebellar atrophy was noted in 57.1%, and decreased immunoglobulin levels in 95.2%. No significant differences in the frequency of clinical findings were observed between early and late diagnosis groups, except that recurrent respiratory tract infections were significantly more common in the early\u2010diagnosis group (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.035).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In this study, clinical variability and key clinical features of AT were identified.
