Abstract
In a patient with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (Heidenhain type), which w as characterized by the initial onset of visual symptoms and proved by autopsy, there was an antagonizing correlation between spontaneously induced periodic synchronous discharges and photically induced giant e voked responses. In addition, the two electroencephalogram features ap peared and disappeared in parallel with each other during the clinical course of the illness.
