Abstract excerpt

RATIONALE: Gerstmann-Sträussler-Scheinker syndrome (GSS) is a rare autosomal dominant disease caused by a mutation in the prion protein gene (PRNP) that is not well known among neurologists and is therefore easily misdiagnosed. PATIENT CONCERNS: : A 49-year-old man was admitted for the first time because of an unsteady walk with mogilalia for 1 year. He underwent a cervical discectomy and a plate-screw fixation...
