Abstract

Although genetic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder, cases of genetic CJD with E200K mutation are being increasingly reported in Korea. However, the clinical features and course of genetic CJD with E200K mutation in Korea remain unclear. We describe the clinical features and course of genetic CJD with E200K mutation in a patient who initially presented with rapid progressive memory impairment and myoclonus.
