Abstract:
Ultrastructural cerebrospinal fluid of 20 parkinsonian patients examined by negative staining showed not recognizable structures thought to be of viral origin in 6 cases (30%). However, mortality rate analysis failed to disclose significant differences between the inoculated animals. Either artefact or not, such structures deserve to be reported.
