Research Abstract |
Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is clinically and neuropathologically heterogeneous disorder. We retrospectively investigated early symptoms of cases with FTD. The results revealed that apathy or semantic aphasia is common among initial symptoms of FTD. We also reported some cases with autoimmune disease mimicking FTD. Neuropathological study of FTD revealed that degeneration of thetemporal pole is most likely to participate in the pathomechanism of semantic aphasia.
