Ataxia-telangiectasia (AT) is a rare, inherited disease. It affects the nervous system, immune system, and other body systems. Symptoms appear in young children, usually before age 5. They include

Ataxia - trouble coordinating movements
Poor balance
Slurred speech
Tiny, red spider veins, called telangiectasias, on the skin and eyes
Lung infections
Delayed physical and sexual development

People with AT have an increased risk of developing diabetes and cancers, particularly lymphoma and leukemia. Although it affects the brain, people with AT usually have normal or above normal intelligence.
