  • Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis
    Seminars in Pediatric Neurology, 1996
    Co-Authors: G. G. Gascon
    Abstract:

    Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE), a neurodegenerative disease caused by a persistent 'Slow Virus infection' with a mutated measles Virus, is endemic in much of the developing world. Its incidence will increase in the USA, not only in immigrants, but also because of the 1988-1990 measles epidemic. This report reviews the pathogenesis, clinical and laboratory diagnosis, and future perspectives in treatment and prevention.

  • progressive rubella panencephalitis follow up eeg study of a case
    Acta neurologica, 1992
    Co-Authors: A Guizzaro, E Volpe, F Bravaccio, R Cotrufo, C Paolozzi
    Abstract:

    : Progressive rubella panencephalitis is a very rare Slow Virus disease of the nervous system. The authors present a case, concerning a young man, aged 20 years, died 11 months after the onset of the disease. The following peculiarities of the case are emphasized: 1) the clinical symptomatology and the evolution (myoclonus, lack of cerebellar impairment) could suggest the diagnosis of SSPE; 2) the EEG recordings showed epileptiform abnormalities, long latency diffuse periodic complexes and--during interferon therapy and simultaneously with a temporary clinical improvement--the appearance of short latency anterior periodic complexes.
