ABSTRACT
Although the initial symptoms of corticobasal degeneration (CBD) are varied, psychiatric symptoms are uncommon. Here, we report the autopsy findings of a patient with early CBD who presented with hallucinations. A 68-year-old man developed memory loss and visions of bears and insects. Because of slow vertical eye movement, postural instability, and levodopa-unresponsive parkinsonism, the patient initially was clinically diagnosed with progressive supranuclear palsy. He died of a urinary tract infection 11 months after the onset of the disease. Histopathological examination revealed neuronal loss and gliosis, which were severe in the substantia nigra and moderate in the globus pallidus and subthalamic nucleus. Astrocytic plaques were scattered throughout the amygdala and premotor cortex. The superficial cortical layers lacked ballooned neurons and spongiosis, and tau deposition was greater in glia than in neurons. The amygdala contained a moderate number of argyrophilic grains and pretangles. Western blot analysis showed a 37-kDa band among the low-molecular-weight tau fragments. Because the CBD pathology was mild, we attributed the patient’s visual hallucinations to the marked argyrophilic grain pathology. CBD can occur with psychiatric symptoms, including visual hallucinations, and argyrophilic grain pathology may be associated with psychiatric symptoms.
