Sporadic fatal insomnia: a case study.
Annals of Neurology 2000 October
A 58-year-old man died after a 27-month illness characterized by insomnia, confirmed by polysomnography. He was homozygous for methionine at codon 129 of the prion gene but had no mutation in the prion gene. Neuropathology showed thalamic and olivary atrophy and no spongiform changes. Paraffin-embedded tissue blotting demonstrated abnormal prion protein in the brain. This is the first case of the sporadic form of fatal familial insomnia with demonstration of the disorder by polysomnography.
