Evidence for case-to-case transmission of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease.

R G Will, W B Matthews.   

Abstract

Three cases of probable iatrogenic transmission of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease by neurosurgery are detailed together with a cluster of three cases in Eastern England possibly connected by dental procedures, and the development of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in a patient who had been in social contact with a familial case.
