ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Tauopathies are a group of diseases caused by the accumulation of hyperphosphorylated tau protein in the central nervous system. Previous studies have revealed that there is considerable overlap in clinical, pathological, and genetic features among different taupathies. CASE REPORT We report a patient with non-fluent/agrammatic primary progressive aphasia at the initial assessment. Over time, other symptoms belonging to corticobasal degeneration and progressive supranuclear palsy appeared in this patient.CONCLUSIONS:
Clinical overlapping features in these disorders may represent different phenotypes of a single disease process.
