Agenesis of corpus callosum (AgCC) is a congenital malformation characterized by total or partial absence of corpus callosum with a good neuropsychological profile. Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is the third most common cause of cortical dementia, and it is characterized by alterations in personality and social relationship, often associated with deficits in attention, abstraction, planning, and problem solving. Herein, we report a case of a 73-year-old woman presenting with FTD associated with primary AgCC. The possible "causal or casual" relationship between these 2 different conditions should be investigated in large prospective studies.
胼胝体发育不全(AgCC)是一种先天性畸形,其特征是胼胝体全部或部分缺失,神经心理状况良好。额颞叶痴呆(FTD)是皮质性痴呆的第三大常见病因,其特征是人格和社会关系改变,常伴有注意力、抽象思维、计划和解决问题能力缺陷。在此,我们报告一例73岁女性,患有与原发性AgCC相关的FTD。这两种不同病症之间可能的“因果或偶然”关系应在大型前瞻性研究中进行调查。
