The clinical and pathological heterogeneity of progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is well established. Even with a well-defined clinical phenotype and a thorough laboratory workup, PSP can be misdiagnosed, especially in its early stages.
A 52-year-old woman, who we initially diagnosed with a behavioral variant of frontotemporal dementia developed parkinsonian features, which then progressed to gait instability and gaze abnormality.
We report herein a pathologically confirmed case of PSP presenting with behavioral changes including agitation and irritability, which eventually led to the cardinal symptoms of progressive supranuclear palsy.
进行性核上性麻痹(PSP)的临床和病理异质性是明确的。即使具有明确的临床表型和全面的实验室检查,PSP 仍可能被误诊,尤其是在早期阶段。
一位 52 岁女性,最初被诊断为额颞叶痴呆的行为变异型,随后出现帕金森病特征,随后进展为步态不稳和眼球异常。
我们在此报告一例经病理证实的 PSP 病例,其表现为行为改变,包括激越和易怒,最终导致进行性核上性麻痹的主要症状。
