Sporadic mixed primary progressive aphasia with semantic / non‐fluent variant phenotypes and GRN mutation: a case report [PDF]

Alzheimers Dement
Abstract Background GRN (progranulin) mutation is a common cause of autosomal dominant frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) but can also occur in non‐familial cases. These mutations usually occur in the behavioral variant FTD (bvFTD) and more rarely in the primary progressive aphasia (PPA), particularly in the non‐fluent / agrammatic (nfvPPA ...

Atypical AD with mixed logopenic / non‐fluent primary progressive aphasia and ANXA11 gene mutation: a case report [PDF]

Alzheimers Dement
Abstract Background Logopenic primary progressive aphasia (lvPPA) is an atypical language variant of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Non‐fluent / agrammatic (nfvPPA) is related to frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) but is rarely found in AD pathology. The annexin A11 (ANXA11) gene mutation is usually associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis / FTLD,
