Abstract
Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) is a progressive inflammatory disorder of the central nervous system with both poor prognosis and a high mortality rate. It is clinically characterized by the insidious onset of intellectual deterioration and behavioral changes followed by myoclonia and, eventually, complete neurologic deterioration. We report a case of SSPE with atypical features including depression at onset in a 22 year-old woman who had been previously immunized against measles.
