Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) is a progressive inflammatory disorder of the central nervous system with both poor prognosis and high mortality. The disease has been related to a persistent and aberrant measles virus infection and no effective treatment has been available. We report a case of SSPE with atypical features including seizures at onset and a fulminant course in a 8 years-old boy who had been previously immunized against measles.
亚急性硬化性全脑炎(SSPE)是一种中枢神经系统的进行性炎症性疾病,预后差且死亡率高。该疾病与持续性及异常的麻疹病毒感染有关,目前尚无有效的治疗方法。我们报告一例具有非典型特征的SSPE病例,该病例为一名8岁男孩,起病时有癫痫发作且病程呈暴发性,该男孩此前已接种过麻疹疫苗。
