Abstract
Dementia with ubiquitinated neuronal inclusions has been described only with frontotemporal dementia (FTD). The authors report a patient with progressive FTD accompanied by prominent impairments in visuospatial cognitive functions. Pathology was characterized by ubiquitin-positive intranuclear and cytoplasmic neuronal inclusions. Cortical pathology was widespread and posteriorly accentuated but spared the hippocampal dentate gyrus.
