We report here PrP-immunohistochemistry performed on brains from CJD cases from Poland. Only one out of five definitive CJD cases exhibited typical PrP-immunoreactive kuru-like plaques and this was case of a short duration. Thus, we confirmed the low percentage of PrP plaques in CJD of Eastern and Central European origin.
