Abstract

This article discusses a case study of a 70-year-old man who presented with visual memory loss. Despite not meeting the clinical criteria for either condition at presentation, post-mortem examination revealed concomitant progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and Lewy body pathology. The study suggests that interactions between these two pathologies in mesial temporal regions may result in this atypical clinical phenotype. The article provides detailed clinical and neuropsychological information and highlights the importance of considering multiple pathologies in cases of neurodegenerative diseases.
