摘  要:Background:Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis(SSPE)is a potentially fatal complication of measles.The authors report a case of recurrent myoclonic jerks under investigation,whose ophthalmic examination pointed to the diagnosis.Case presentation:A 12-year-old boy with recurrent episodes of myoclonic jerks was found to have optic disc pallor and an irregular macular scar with pigmentation in the left eye.The retinal finding proved to be a strong diagnostic clue for SSPE.There was a history of exanthematous fever in childhood.Antibodies against measles were detected in both the cerebrospinal fluid and serum.Retinitis with intraretinal and subretinal hemorrhage in the right eye was noted 6-weeks after the initial presentation.Conclusion:The authors describe the importance of ophthalmic evaluation in cases of recurrent myoclonic jerks.Optical coherence tomographic features and ultrawide field imaging characteristics of a case of SSPE are described.
