Clinic

  • It is the most important Prion miasm.
  • A rare neurodegenerative disease that is clinically characterized by
    1. Rapidly progressive dementia
    2. Visual disturbance
    3. Movement disorders (myoclonus) (90%)
    4. Cerebellar ataxia (80%) [1]
  • Nonspecific / Prodromal syndrome of fatigue Sleeping/ Eating disorders (33%)
  • Cognitive symptoms such as Memory loss / Confusion or Behavioral changes / Personality changes / Hallucinations (33%)
  • Focal neurological signs (33%) such as
  • Almost all patients enter a phase of Akinetic mutism before death.
  • Although chorea is commonly observed in variant CJD (vCJD= NVCJD), it is considered a rare occurrence in sporadic CJD (sCJD).


Entities

  • Cortical Blindness: Visual Agnosia, Visual field deficits, Blindness


Paresthesia

Muscular Atrophy

Fasciculation

Muscular Spasm


Related disease

Dysphagia

As the disease process advances, destruction of the cerebral architecture in sensory, motor, and associated areas can lead to oropharyngeal dysphagia. [4]
