Time Course of Radiological Imaging and Variable Interindividual Symptoms in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia Associated with p.Arg487His Mutation in the VCP Gene.
European Neurology 2017
To our knowledge, this is the first study to report the time course of radiological imaging of 3 patients from 2 families with VCP-related amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and dementia. Both families shared the same p.Arg487His mutation in the VCP gene encoding valosin-containing protein. The first patient started to have a typical form of ALS, followed by dementia 7 years later. The second patient, a brother of the first one, had frontotemporal dementia and parkinsonism. The third patient had simultaneous ALS and dementia. All patients seemed to have progressive brain atrophy as their clinical symptoms progressed. The common and characteristic finding was atrophy of the temporal lobes including the hippocampi. The relation between imaging findings and symptoms varied considerably among the 3 patients.
