Fatal familial insomnia: a seventh family.

A 60-year-old woman with a typical history of fatal familial insomnia (FFI) had FFI proven by histologic examination and molecular testing. Her son, who died at the age of 20 in 1978, had a rapidly progressive dementing illness without reported insomnia. He carried the characteristic mutation for FFI and is the youngest patient reported with this condition.
