frontotemporal lobar degeneration/dyskinesias

We report two unusual autopsy cases with frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) that were hyperphosphorylated-tau- and TAR DNA binding protein 43 (TDP-43)- negative. The behavioral symptoms in both cases were compatible with frontotemporal dementia, but they exhibited more prominent speech and

Corticobasal syndrome (CBS) is characterized by asymmetric involuntary movements including rigidity, tremor, dystonia, and myoclonus, and often associated with apraxia, cortical sensory deficits, and alien limb phenomena. Additionally, there are various nonmotor (cognitive and language) deficits.

While both neuronal intermediate filament inclusion disease (NIFID) and basophilic inclusion body disease (BIBD) show frontotemporal lobar degeneration and/or motor neuron disease, it remains unclear whether, and how, these diseases differ from each other. Here, we compared the clinicopathological
