Ataxia-Teleangiectasia (A-T), also known as Louis-Bar syndrome, is a rare hereditary disease that leads to neurological symptoms in early childhood with increasing loss of muscle control and balance disorders. Typical skin changes (telangiectasia = dilation of the small skin vessels) are found in the conjunctiva of the eye and preferentially in light-exposed areas of the skin. The probability of cancer and the risk of infection are increased.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
