Abstract
Frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) is the third most common degenerative dementia, behind Alzheimer disease (AD) and dementia with Lewy bodies.1 It is a heterogeneous disorder with at least 3 recognized clinical presentations,2 multiple histopathologic subtypes,3,4 and familial cases associated with mutations in 4 different genes5-9 with an additional genetic linkage on chromosome 9p.10-12Keywords
