Late‐onset ataxia telangiectasia in two brothers presenting with juvenile resting tremor

Two young adult brothers presented with a 5- to 6-Hz resting tremor of the upper limbs. Although ataxia was not unequivocally present and ocular telangiectasia was minimal, typical rearrangements of chromosomes 7 and 14, and increased alpha-feto-protein levels indicated the presence of ataxia telangiectasia (AT). Resting tremor as a predominating symptom in AT is uncommon and to our knowledge has not been described previously.
