AB Clinical data and autopsy findings in a case of new variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD) are reported. This case, the first histologically confirmed case described outside the United Kingdom, very much resembles the cases described by Will et al. [(1996) Lancet 347:921-925] and Zeidler et al. [(1997) Lancet 350:903-908, 908-910]. Neuropathological studies failed to reveal any conspicuous clues that could be relevant for understanding the pathophysiology of the disease. For epidemiological surveillance, neuropathologists should scrutinize suspected cases keeping in mind the possibility of vCJD.
