A case of juvenile Alzheimer's disease is reported with onset at 34 years of age, a clinical course of 6 years, had myoclonic jerks, generalized convulsions, dysarthria and ataxic symptoms. The neuropathological examination indicated kuru-plaques, amyloid angiopathy and grumose alteration (degeneration) in the dentate nucleus.
