GARCIA-ORTEGA, Yessica Eleanet et al. Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. Med. interna Méx. [online]. 2019, vol.35, n.5, pp.795-801. Epub 30-Abr-2021. ISSN 0186-4866. https://doi.org/10.24245/mim.v35i5.2583..
Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease is a neuroselective and neurodegenerative illness, with fatal course, which is rare and represents a challenge for clinical diagnosis. This paper reports the case of a 52-year-old male with a history of ingestion of wild mam- mals during his life, with a picture of diminished visual acuity, rapidly progressive dementia, myoclonus, abnormal movements and motor dysfunction; with auxiliary studies of differential diagnosis within normal parameters and the determination of reactive TAU protein.
