We report the case of a 67 year old female complaining of decreased vision and diagnosed with the Heidenhain variant of sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. Her past medical history was unremarkable. She died less than three months after the onset.
The Heidenhain variant of sporadic Creutfeld-Jakob disease should be suspected in patients suffering from early visual disturbances, unremarkable ophthalmic examination, and subsequent rapid decline of their cognitive function. A complete neurological exam including electroencephalogram recordings and magnetic resonance is mandatory. These patients share a common genotype (PRNP codon 129 MM) associated with a clinically typical disease course.
我们报告一例67岁女性病例,该患者主诉视力下降,被诊断为散发性克雅氏病的海登海因变异型。她既往病史无异常。发病后不到三个月她就去世了。
对于早期出现视觉障碍、眼科检查无异常且随后认知功能迅速衰退的患者,应怀疑患有散发性克雅氏病的海登海因变异型。必须进行包括脑电图记录和磁共振成像在内的全面神经系统检查。这些患者具有与临床典型病程相关的共同基因型(PRNP密码子129 MM)。
