In the following list you will find some of the most common rare diseases related to Ataxia and Babinski sign that can help you solving undiagnosed cases.
Spinocerebellar ataxia type 4 (SCA4) is a very rare progressive and untreatable subtype of type I autosomal dominant cerebellar ataxia (ADCA type I; see this term) characterized by ataxia with sensory neuropathy.

More info about SPINOCEREBELLAR ATAXIA TYPE 26X-linked non progressive cerebellar ataxia is a rare hereditary ataxia characterized by delayed early motor development, severe neonatal hypotonia, non-progressive ataxia and slow eye movements, presenting normal cognitive abilities and absence of pyramidal signs. Frequently patients also manifest intention tremor, mild dysphagia, and dysarthria. Brain MRI reveals global cerebellar atrophy with absence of other malformations or degenerations of the central and peripheral nervous systems.
X-LINKED NON PROGRESSIVE CEREBELLAR ATAXIA Is also known as scax5|x-linked spinocerebellar ataxia type 5

More info about X-LINKED NON PROGRESSIVE CEREBELLAR ATAXIANeuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis-13 is an autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by adult onset of progressive cognitive decline and motor dysfunction leading to dementia and often early death. Some patients develop seizures. Neurons show abnormal accumulation of autofluorescent material (summary by Smith et al., 2013).Adult-onset neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis is sometimes referred to as Kufs disease.For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (CLN), see CLN1 (OMIM ).
CLN13 DISEASE Is also known as ceroid lipofuscinosis, neuronal, 13, kufs type

Most show some degree of cognitive impairment. Other variable features may include seizures, migraine headaches, and ataxia (summary by Weber et al., 2011).

The Jokela type of spinal muscular atrophy (SMAJ) is an autosomal dominant lower motor neuron disorder characterized by adult-onset of muscle cramps and fasciculations affecting the proximal and distal muscles of the upper and lower limbs. The disorder is slowly progressive, resulting in weakness and mild muscle atrophy later in life (summary by Jokela et al., 2011).
