Popis: The case is reported of a 64-year-old woman with ataxia and dementia progressing to a state of extrapyramidal rigidity and death in 10 months. The neuropathological changes characterised by severe nerve cell degeneration and loss, a hypertrophic astrocytic gliosis and a status spongiosus were widespread in the cerebral cortex, corpus striatum and cerebellum and confirmed the clinical diagnosis of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease.
