We report a 26-year-old woman with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease(CJD)who had received cadeveric dural material 33 months before the onset of neurologic symptoms.This is the fourth case in which a dural graft was the putative source of the CJD agent.All four cases had the grafting before changes in the sterilization procedure adopted in 1987 to inactivate the CJD agent. |
