Abstract
The case of a 57-year old man is reported who had been operated upon for cerebellar angioblastoma more than 19 years previously. Having received a lyophilized dural patch he developed Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease of which he died 19 months later. This is the longest latency with dura-associated Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease reported so far.Entities:
