German term

Standataxie

German to English Medical Medical (general) Wilson disease and ALL
Hello! My first reaction to this term was "standing ataxia" or "ataxia on standing", but I can't find many reliable hits for this. Is there a more common term for this?
There is no more context in the text, this is just a term in a list of symptoms.
