fatal familial insomnia
This disease is a subacute familial TSE, clinically characterized by intractable insomnia, autonomic dysfunction and motor signs that are unresponsive to treatment, and histopathologically characterized by selective atrophy of the anteroventral and dorsomedial nuclei of the thalamus. Earlier, this disease was confused with familial CJD. In 1986, Lugaresi et al. from the School of Medicine of the University of Bologna in Italy first reported and described the first case of this disease in detail, naming it fatal familial insomnia. Since then, a new member has been added to human prion diseases.
