TY - JOUR JO - Klinika Oczna / Acta Ophthalmologica Polonica SN - 0023-2157 VL - 122 IS - 2 PY - 2020 ID - Linke2020 TI - Okulistyczna manifestacja choroby Creutzfeldta-Jakoba w wariancie Heidenhaina – opis przypadku AB - We present the case of a 59-year-old female patient with the sporadic form of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in the Heidenhain variant. The main ocular symptoms were initial bilateral deteriorated visual acuity and final blindness. Due to a very low prevalence, non-specific symptoms and rapid course, making a quick and accurate diagnosis can be challenging. Vision impairment may occur in about 10% of patients with a sporadic form of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease at the time of diagnosis and 50% during the disease. So far, no effective treatment has been found. The death of our patient occurred 9 weeks after the first symptoms.
