ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT The superimposed clinical features of motor neuron disease (MND) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) comprise a distinct, yet not fully understood, neurological overlap syndrome whose clinicopathological basis has recently been reviewed. Here, we present a review of the clinical, pathological and genetic basis of MND-FTD and the role of MRI in its diagnosis. In doing so, we discuss current techniques that depict the involvement of the selective corticospinal tract (CST) and temporal lobe in MND-FTD.
RESUMO
RESUMO As características clínicas sobreposta da doença do neurônio motor (DNM) e demência frontotemporal (DFT) compreendem um distinto ainda não totalmente compreendido, base neurológica síndrome de sobreposição clínico-patológico foi recentemente revisto. Aqui, apresentamos uma revisão das bases clínicas, patológicas e genética de DNM-DFT e o papel da ressonância magnética no diagnóstico STI. Ao fazê-lo, discutimos as técnicas atuais que retratam o envolvimento do trato corticoespinhal seletiva (TCS) e lobo temporal em DNM-DFT.
