ABSTRACT
An 11-month-old boy presented with focal seizures, myoclonic jerks and altered sensorium of one month duration, with a history of measles at eight months of age. A diagnosis of Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) was made on the basis of typical EEG changes and presence of anti-measles antibody in cerebrospinal fluid. A differential diagnosis of SSPE should be considered in all forms of acute encephalopathy in infants for early diagnosis and management.
