Anterior opercular syndrome in frontotemporal lobar degeneration with ubiquitin-only immunoreactive neuronal changes.

Abstract

This paper presents for the first time an anterior opercular syndrome in association with a gait disorder, dropped head syndrome, dysphagia, and sialorrhea in a neuropathologically proven case of frontotemporal lobar degeneration with ubiquitin inclusions.
