Summary A case of adrenoleukodystrophy showing neurological features of olivopontocerebellar atrophy is described. A CT scan demonstrated marked atrophy in both cerebellum and pons. ACTH stimulation produced no rise in the plasma cortisol level but a significant rise in the plasma aldosterone level. The ratios of C26:0 to C22:0 in fatty acids of sphingomyelin from erythrocyte membrane and plasma were increased.
