Abstract

Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) is a rare dementing disease and is thought to caused by a prion. It is characterized by rapidly progressive dementia, ataxia, myoclonus, akinetic mutism and eventual death. Brain biopsy or autopsy is required for a definitive diagnosis of CJD. Diffusion-weighted imaging became an important tool for early diagnosis of CJD because of the high sensitivity. We present 59-year-old female patient diagnosed as sporadic CJD with typical MR imagings.

Özet

Creutzfeldt-Jakob hastalığı (CJH) nadir görülen progresif demansiyel bir prion hastalığıdır. Hızlı ilerleyen demans, ataksi, miyoklonus, akinetik mutizm ve sonrasında ölüm ile karakterizedir. Kesin tanıya beyin biyopsisi veya otopsi ile ulaşılabilir. Difüzyon ağırlıklı görüntüleme yüksek sensitivitesi nedeniyle CJH tanısında oldukça önemli bir tanı yöntemidir. Biz bu yazıda olası sporadik CJH tanısı konan ve tipik MR görüntüleme bulguları olan 59 yaşındaki kadın olguyu sunduk.
