- Abstract:
- The neurological and psychiatric manifestations in a case of Urbach-Wiethe's disease are reported. The present case is characterized by the predominance of cerebral symptoms: ataxia, psychomotoric seizures, paranoic hallucinatory psychosis and attacks of rage. At autopsy, deposits of amyloid-like material in the walls of the brain vessels could be observed. This finding, together with the mucocutaneous alterations, confirmed the diagnosis of the rare disease know as "lipoid proteinosis cutis et mucosae".
