RESUMO
A 12-yr-old boy with an atypical presentation of subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) is described. Bilateral macular chorioretinitis preceded the neurological symptoms by 3 weeks. Both visual and neurological features had an acute onset. Clinicians need to be aware that macular chorioretinitis in a child may be the heralding feature of SSPE.
