PT journal article
AB Three neuropathologically confirmed cases of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in young people (19, 23, and 27 years of age) are described. None had received pituitary hormone therapy. At the onset of illness all patients were suspected of having SSPE or other viral encephalitis, because of the similarity of clinical symptomatology and the shift towards older age of SSPE onsets observed in Poland in recent years.
