Fronto-temporal lobar degeneration - agrammatic variant primary progressive aphasia

Discussion:

This case illustrates a patient with frontotemporal lobar degeneration, as spotted on the MRI and SPECT images, with a clear progressive loss of specific language functions: dysfluent speech, with frequent hesitations, and errors in the production of speech sounds; however, relatively preserving the other cognitive domains. The neuropsychiatry team defined this case as agrammatic variant primary progressive aphasia.
