Sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease in a Very Young Person
Neurol 97:813-816,801, Appleby, B.S.,et al, 2021
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Although extremely rare, sCJD can occur in young people and should be considered in the setting of rapidly progressive neuropsychiatric conditions. Postmortem examination is required to diagnose the type of prion disease and remains important to surveil for known and potentially novel acquired prion diseases.
