Methods: The study presents a clinical case of a family with three children affected by this disorder. All children exhibited characteristic manifestations, including progressive cerebellar ataxia of varying severity; conjunctival and cutaneous telangiectasias; recurrent infections; and delayed psychomotor development. In the eldest child, the clinical presentation resembled the ataxic form of cerebral palsy. Standardised scales assessing motor, manual, and communicative functions were used to evaluate the severity of ataxia.  \nResults: Brain magnetic resonance imaging confirmed cerebellaratrophy in the eldest child and cerebellar subatrophyin the middle and youngest children. All children demonstrated telangiectasias on the mucous membranes of the eyes and skin, as well as signs of immunodeficiency manifesting as frequent infections. Family pedigree analysis revealed consanguinity in the third generation (the maternal grandmother and paternal grandfather were biological siblings). Molecular genetic testing identified a homozygous c.5932G > A mutation in the ATM gene encoding a protein involved in DNA repair.  \nConclusion: The findings confirm that consanguineous unions increase the risk of developing Louis-Bar syndrome, as they elevate the likelihood of inheriting identical mutant alleles. This study highlights the importance of medical-genetic counselling and prenatal diagnostics in families at high risk of hereditary diseases, particularly in regions with a high prevalence of consanguineous marriages.  \nKeywords ~~ ~~  \nMutations, Autosomal Recessive Inheritance, Immunodeficiency, CerebellarAtrophy, Family Genetic Counselling, Telangiectasia, Paediatrics, Paediatric Neurology, MRI Diagnostics, Differential Diagnostics, Ataxic Form of Cerebral Palsy, Palliative Care  \nReceived: 2025 September 23 Accepted: 2025 November 3  \nIntroduction  \nLouis-Bar syndrome (LBS), also known as ataxiatelangiectasia (A-T), is a rare inherited disorder that leads to severe neurological impairment, immunodeficiency,  \nand a substantial decline in patients’ quality of life.
