Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease with periodic lateralized discharge: case report
Clinical EEG (Electroencephalography)
|July 1, 1990
Abstract:
A case of CJD with PLD in the first EEG is reported. The PLD became bilateral in the next EEG. The subsequent EEGs showed shifting asymmetries. In this case, PSD reappeared after 5 months' absence. The PLD occasionally appeared over the hemisphere ipsilateral to the side of the myoclonic jerks. The clinical significance of the PLD and reappearance of PD, and the diagnostic importance of PLD are discussed.
