Prediction of Co-Occurrence of Lewy Body Disease with Alzheimer's Disease.

Identifying the coexistence of Lewy body (LB) pathology with Alzheimer's disease (AD) in clinical practice is important in the era of anti-amyloid-β antibody therapy. However, few studies have predicted the presence of comorbid LB pathology with AD using indicative biomarkers of dementia with Lewy bodies or by collecting detailed clinical symptoms. We report the clinical progression of a 67-year-old patient diagnosed with AD who developed rapid eye movement sleep disorder-like symptoms and transient visual hallucinations 10 years after AD onset and was considered to have comorbid LB pathology based on imaging indicative biomarkers of dementia with Lewy bodies.
