  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

We report a 59-year-old woman with generalized amyotrophy and dementia. She showed personality change at 53 years of age. When she was 56 years old, she began to show abnormal and violent behaviors. At age 58, she developed dysphagia and amyotrophy of upper limbs. She was admitted to a hospital for the treatment of aspiration pneumonia. She was severely demented and showed pseudobulbar palsy, amyotrophy of tongues, weakness of upper limbs, and pyramidal signs. She was still able to walk by herself. Dementia, pseudobulbar palsy, and amyotrophy progressed rapidly. At age 59, she became bed ridden and required tube feeding. She died by aspiration pneumonia at age 59. The patient was discussed at a neurological CPC and the chief discussant arrived at the conclusion that the patient had ALS dementia. Other possibility discussed was Pick's disease with amyotrophy. Post-mortem examination revealed severe lower motor neuron degeneration. The upper motor neurons were unaffected. Neuronal loss was not observed in the cerebral cortex, but moderate gliosis was seen in the cerebral white matter. In addition, the substantia nigra was moderately degenerated. There were ubiquitin positive neuronal inclusions in the granular cells of the dentate gyrus. Also, Bunina bodies were seen in the neurons of spinal anterior horns. These findings were characteristic pathology for ALS with dementia.
