Prognosis of Patients with Behavioral Variant Frontotemporal Dementia Who have Focal Versus Diffuse Frontal Atrophy
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Only a few studies have investigated the relationship between different subtypes and disease progression or prognosis in patients with behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD). Since a localized injury often produces more focal signs than a diffuse injury, we hypothesized that the clinical characteristics differ between patients with bvFTD who show diffuse front...
متن کاملTemporal Variant Frontotemporal Dementia Is Associated with Globular Glial Tauopathy
Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is a clinically and pathologically heterogeneous neurodegenerative disorder associated with atrophy of the frontal and temporal lobes. Most patients with focal temporal lobe atrophy present with either the semantic dementia subtype of FTD or the behavioral variant subtype. For patients with temporal variant FTD, the most common cause found on post-mortem examinatio...
متن کاملActivities of daily living in behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia: differences in caregiver and performance-based assessments.
Patients with the behavioral variant of frontotemporal dementia have marked impairment in everyday life, yet little is known about factors underlying this impairment. Moreover, a recently identified subgroup with normal brain imaging has an excellent prognosis (phenocopy cases) and their performance on activities of daily living (ADL) tasks is unknown. Eighteen behavioral variant frontotemporal...
متن کاملFrontal presentation of Alzheimer's disease: a series of patients with biological evidence by CSF biomarkers
Besides its typical amnesic presentation, focal atypical presentations of Alzheimer's disease (AD) have been described in neuropathological studies. These phenotypical variants of AD (so-called "atypical AD") do not follow the typical amnestic pattern and include non-amnestic focal cortical syndromes, such as posterior cortical atrophy and frontal variant AD. These variants exhibit characterist...
متن کاملFrontotemporal Dementias: A Review
Dementia is a clinical state characterized by loss of function in multiple cognitive domains. It is a costly disease in terms of both personal suffering and economic loss. Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is the term now preferred over Picks disease to describe the spectrum of non-Alzheimers dementias characterized by focal atrophy of the frontal and anterior temporal regions of the brain. The pre...
