Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) is a rare, invariably fatal degenerative disease of the central nervous system developing after measles infection. Besides neurological symptoms as initial presenting symptoms, rare reports of its presentation with pure psychiatric symptoms have been reported. We here report a case of 14 year old male who initially presented with manic symptoms and then subsequently diagnosed to be suffering from SSPE. Improtance of ruling our organic conditions is emphasized.
亚急性硬化性全脑炎（SSPE）是一种罕见的、不可避免会致命的中枢神经系统退行性疾病，在麻疹感染后发生。除了以神经症状作为初始表现症状外，也有罕见报告称其以单纯精神症状为表现。我们在此报告一例14岁男性病例，该患者最初表现为躁狂症状，随后被诊断患有SSPE。强调了排除器质性疾病的重要性。
