    Author: Arora SC, Al-Tahan AR, Al-Zeer A, Al-Tahan F, Ozo CO, ur-Rahman N.
    Journal: J Neurol Sci; 1997 Feb 27; 146(1):13-8. PubMed ID: 9077490.
    Abstract:
    Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis is characterized by the insidious onset of diffuse cerebral dysfunction associated later with myoclonus and typical electroencephalographic changes. The disease progresses relentlessly to coma and death within 2 years. We report a case of acute onset and rapid course associated with atypical CSF, EEG and MRI features simulating acute disseminated encephalomyelitis. Brief review of relevant literature is presented.
