Abstract:
Fatal familial insomnia,an autosomal dominant prion disease,is rare.We reported the clin-ical symptoms,examination results,diagnosis,treatment,and prognosis of a patient who was diagnosed with fatal familial insomnia.Furthermore,we described the unique clinical manifestations that involuntary movements and laryngeal stridor were significantly correlated with postural changes,aiming to provide reference for the clini-cal diagnosis,treatment,and research of the disease in the future.
