A 59-years old man presented with worsening chronic ataxia and recent onset dysarthria, deafness and dementia of three months. Over five years, he was investigated for unsteady gait and found bilateral cerebellar and pyramidal tract signs which were attributed to cerebellitis and transverse myelitis respectively. He already had an indwelling urinary catheter for suspected prostatism.
