Abstract
Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis is characterized by the insidious onset of diffuse cerebral dysfunction associated later with myoclonus and typical electroencephalographic changes. The disease progresses relentlessly to coma and death within 2 years. We report a case of acute onset and rapid course associated with atypical CSF, EEG and MRI features simulating acute disseminated encephalomyelitis. Brief review of relevant literature is presented.Entities:
