Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in a physician: a review of the disorder in health care workers.

J R Berger1, N J David.   

Abstract

We describe a 58-year-old physician who developed Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) 30 years after formal training in pathology. To the best of our knowledge, he is the sixth physician and the 24th health care worker reported with CJD. We summarize the available data on these health care workers.
