Abstract
Coeliac disease (CD) is an autoimmune enteropathy that may feature extraintestinal manifestations including cerebellar ataxia and myoclonus. A descriptive series of five patients with CD who presented with prominent stimulus-sensitive foot myoclonus. Stimulus-sensitive foot myoclonus is a distinct clinical sign and may be a useful clue to the diagnosis of CD.
