Abstract
This report describes an atypical case of rapidly progressive subacute sclerosing panencephalitis presenting as transient visual agnosia and myoclonus in a 14-year-old male. There were no typical periodic complexes in serial electroencephalographic monitoring; cerebrospinal fluid measles antibody titer was negative. The diagnosis was made by molecular and histologic examination of open brain biopsy tissue.Entities:
