Hypomagnesemia, a Rare Cause of Reversible Ataxia.

Background: A 61-year-old male patient presented with cerebellar syndrome, which had progressively worsened for 10 days, followed by a tonic-clonic seizure.

Phenomenology Shown: Blood analysis showed severe hypomagnesemia and a brain MRI showed T2 hyperintensity in the cerebellar hemispheres (Figure 1). Therefore, the final diagnosis was cerebellar syndrome and epileptic seizures secondary to severe hypomagnesemia.
