Sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease Complicated by Intracerebral Hemorrhaging in the Early Stage of Onset
The coexistence of sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (sCJD) and intracerebral hemorrhaging (ICH) has rarely been reported, and the relationship between these conditions remains unclear. This report presents the case of a 49-year-old woman without any hemorrhagic risk factors who developed subcortical hemorrhaging in the early stages of sCJD. This case suggests that sCJD is associated with ICH, particularly in cases of subcortical hemorrhaging.
