[Pathogenetic and therapeutic aspects of subacute sclerosing encephalitis (author's transl)]
This paper reports the case of a 20-year-old patient with subacute sclerosing leukoencephalitis who in spite of the severe illness was delivered of a healthy child be caesarean section. This child grew normally and showed no signs of disease of the CNS. The patient herself was treated immunsuppressively and the illness then reached a stationary state. The pathogenesis of subacute sclerosing leukoencephalitis, similarities of laboratory findings to multiple sclerosis, and problems of treatment are discussed.
