A reference handbook of the medical sciences, embracing the entire range of scientific and practical medicine and allied science . ets in as arule about middle life, and the progress is or reeling gait is one of the first symjitomsto show itself ;.then comes incoordination of the upperextremities, to be followed by hesitancy, scanning orexplosive articulation, nystagmus, and tremor of thehead and limbs. There is no clonus, and no Babinski;the sphincters are intact, and the psyche remainsnormal. Hemorrhage of the Cerebellum.—This disturbance isvery rare. Operative interference as a rule is symptoms vary according to the size and locationof the hemorrhage. Parts of the dentate nuclei areoften affected through the frequent involvement ofthe superior cerebellar artery. Possible extensioninto the fourth ventricle should not be overlooked. The usual picture is that of marked vertigo, recur-ring on attempts to move, and usually persistent innon-fatal cases, cerebellar gait, nystagmus on lateralmovements, and forced position of the head, depend-ing on lateral movements. Onset of the symptoms. Fic. 1296.—Hemorriiage into the Cerebellum. (Larkin.) is usually sudden, or preceded by pain in the back ofthe head with slight giddiness or forced position ofthe head. The patient whose cerebellum is figured here () felt dizzy, went to the drug store with a dnmken,reeling gait, and died suddenh- without other signsobservable. Cysts of the Cerebellum.—Differential diagnosis ofcysts and cystic tumors is very difficult as tlie symp-toms are practically identical, the operative outlook inthe case of cysts being much better than in that of tu-mor. Together they form a small proportion (five toten per cent.) of tumor formation in the cerebellum. Cerebellar Tutriors.—Before discussing tumors ofthe cerebellum proper and their symptomatology, a word may be said regarding the question of cerebellarlocalization. lho researches in comparative anatomyby
