    Notes: Summary In 1974, the Japanese EEG Society's Ad Hoc Committee on Brain Death published criteria for determining brain death only in cases of acute gross primary brain lesions. In 1983, a new brain death study group was organized to re-evaluate these criteria. During a 6-month period from March 1, 1984, 217 neurosurgical and neurological clinics and emergency services throughout Japan reported 718 brain deaths caused not only by primary lesions but also by secondary brain lesions and diagnosed as such on the basis of the 1974 criteria excluding the condition of “abrupt fall of blood pressure followed by persistent hypotension”. The data derived from the 718 cases in this collaborative study were pooled and analyzed, and it became known that the 1974 criteria still are generally reliable. Some changes have been made, however, and new criteria for determination of brain death adopted.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die klinischen Symptome einer 52 Jahre alten Frau mit typischer Creutzfeldt-Jakobscher Erkrankung und zusätzlich einer Atrophie des N. opticus werden beschrieben. Serienmäßige CT-Untersuchungen zeigten schon im Frünstadium der Erkrankung eine rasch fortschreitende Hirnatrophie. Autoptisch wurden neben den für die Creutzfeldt-Jakobsche Erkrankung klassischen Befunden eine ausgedehnte Degeneration der zerebralen und zerebellaren weißen Substanz sowie der Sehnerven gefunden. Diese Befunde deuten darauf hin, daß sowohl die graue als auch die weiße Substanz bereits im Frühstadium der Erkrankung schwer zerstört sein können und daß möglicherweise die Beteiligung der weißen Substanz nicht eine Folge neuronaler Schädigung ist.
    Notes: Summary A 52-year-old woman is described, whose clinical features were typical of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease except for the presence of optic atrophy. Serial CT scans showed rapid development of brain atrophy early in the course. Postmortem examination revealed extensive degeneration of the cerebral and cerebellar white matter and of the optic nerves in addition to the classic findings of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. It is suggested that both the grey and white matter may undergo a severe destructive process early in the course of the disease, and the possibility is discussed that the white matter involvement is not a result of neuronal loss.
