what is cellebelum syndrome?

Answer 1

I'm guessing ' Cerebellar syndrome '?

This is another name for the condition more usually called cerebellar ataxia. This is a movement coordination disorder due to problems in the area of the brain called the cerebellum. It usually involves an intention tremor, ( one where your hands tremble when you try to pick up something, not when at rest), inability to hit the target, i.e. close your eyes and try and touch your nose with your finger and you miss!

Answer 2

If you are, in fact, talking about cerebellum syndrome, I think you'll find the following page gives a not too difficult to understand explanation of what it is.

The cerebellum is an area of the brain, beneath the two main hemispheres that are often talked about, located just above the brain stem, at the base of the skull.

Answer 3

Cerebellar disorders have numerous causes, including congenital malformations, hereditary ataxias, and acquired disorders. Symptoms vary with cause but typically involve ataxia (an abnormal, wide-based gait due to impaired muscle coordination). Diagnosis is clinical and also often by imaging and sometimes genetic testing. Treatment is usually only supportive unless the cause is acquired and reversible.

The cerebellum has 3 parts. The archicerebellum (vestibulocerebellum) includes the flocculonodular lobe, which is located in the medial zone. It helps maintain equilibrium and coordinate eye, head, and neck movements; it is closely interconnected with the vestibular nuclei. The midline vermis (paleocerebellum) helps coordinate trunk and leg movements. Vermis lesions result in abnormalities of stance and gait. The lateral hemispheres (neocerebellum) control quick and finely coordinated limb movements, predominantly of the arms.

Ataxia is the archetypal sign of cerebellar dysfunction, but many other motor abnormalities may occur

Answer 4

Its when you get it caught in the pool drain.

Answer 5

do you mean cerebellum? if you do, its something to do with the brain =)

Answer 6

better yet...what's a cellebelum?

Answer 7

its nothing, there's no such thing, have you spelt it right??
