Postural instability, frontotemporal dementia, and ophthalmoplegia: Clinicopathological case.

A 56-year-old man presented with gait disturbance, personality change, and behavioral disturbances. He subsequently developed falls, postural instability, and axial rigidity. The cognitive problems progressed and he developed aphasia and later eye movement abnormalities. He died after 9 years of disease. Experts discuss the syndromal diagnosis and predict the underlying pathology. The pathological diagnosis is given and clinical learning points are considered. © 2011 Movement Disorder Society [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
