A 47 year old man is described who developed pathology
proven Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) 38 years after
receiving a low dose of human derived growth hormone
(hGH) as part of a diagnostic procedure. The patient
presented with a cerebellar syndrome, which is compatible
with iatrogenic CJD. This is the longest incubation period
described so far for iatrogenic CJD. Furthermore, this is the
first report of CJD after diagnostic use of hGH. Since the
patient was one of the first in the world to receive hGH,
other cases of iatrogenic CJD can be expected in the coming
years............snip...........tss
