Unilateral subacute sclerosing panencephalitis complexes with contralateral myoclonus.
The characteristic EEG complexes seen in subacute sclerosing panencephalitis and the periodic myoclonus accompanying them are well known. That either of these can occur unilaterally is less well appreciated. However, the combination of unilateral SSPE complexes and contralateral myoclonus is most unusual. Attention is drawn to such a case in this paper.
