摘要

额颞叶痴呆(bvFTD)是一种神经退行性疾病，通过进行性神经精神改变和支持性神经影像学来诊断。准确诊断bvFTD是一个具有挑战性的过程，由于存在症状保持稳定的非进展性或表现性病例，可能会使诊断变得复杂。本例患者表现为bvFTD特有的神经精神症状，经过彻底的神经精神和神经心理学评估和治疗后，病情好转并稳定下来。我们的病例表明，尽管诊断不确定，适当的评估和治疗可以改善和稳定被认为患有bvFTD的个体的神经精神症状。

Sustained Long-term Improvement in Neuropsychiatric Symptoms of an Individual With Initial bvFTD Diagnosis: A Case Report

The behavioral variant of frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) is a neurodegenerative disease that is diagnosed by progressive neuropsychiatric changes and supportive neuroimaging. Making an accurate diagnosis of bvFTD is a challenging process that can be complicated by the presence of a subset of nonprogressive, or phenocopy, cases whose symptoms remain stable. Our patient, who presented with neuropsychiatric symptoms that are characteristic of bvFTD, improved and stabilized after thorough neuropsychiatric and neuropsychological evaluation and treatment. Our case illustrates that, despite diagnostic uncertainties, appropriate evaluation and treatment can lead to improvement and stabilization of neuropsychiatric symptoms in individuals presumed to have bvFTD.

期刊介绍： Cognitive and Behavioral Neurology (CBN) is a forum for advances in the neurologic understanding and possible treatment of human disorders that affect thinking, learning, memory, communication, and behavior. As an incubator for innovations in these fields, CBN helps transform theory into practice. The journal serves clinical research, patient care, education, and professional advancement. The journal welcomes contributions from neurology, cognitive neuroscience, neuropsychology, neuropsychiatry, and other relevant fields. The editors particularly encourage review articles (including reviews of clinical practice), experimental and observational case reports, instructional articles for interested students and professionals in other fields, and innovative articles that do not fit neatly into any category. Also welcome are therapeutic trials and other experimental and observational studies, brief reports, first-person accounts of neurologic experiences, position papers, hypotheses, opinion papers, commentaries, historical perspectives, and book reviews.
