AB The electroencephalogram (EEG) of three patients with typical Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) was characterized by periodic lateralized epileptiform complexes (PLEDs), which persisted and became bilateral. This unusual pattern preceded the characteristic EEG change of CJD. Persistence of PLEDs should suggest the diagnosis of CJD.
IN Noch vor dem CJD-typischen EEG-Muster fiel bei drei Creutzfeldt-Jakob-Patienten ein ungewöhnliches EEG-Muster auf, das als periodisch epileptiforme Komplexe beschrieben wird.
