✦ Synopsis

A patient who presented with a subacutely evolving dementia and electroencephalographic changes resembling those reported in Creutzfeldt‐Jakob disease was found at autopsy to have Alzheimer disease. Despite typical clinical and electroencephalographic findings, accurate discrimination between these two diseases depends on pathological examination.
