A 66-yr-old woman presented with progressive cognitive decline and mild hyperkinetic motor symptoms. Neuropsychological evaluation revealed impairment of memory and frontal executive functions with normal activities of daily living, indicating a mild cognitive impairment. Brain imaging showed extensive calcification involving bilateral basal ganglia, thalamus, occipital cortex and cerebellum consistent with Fahr disease. FDG-PET showed diffuse glucose hypometabolism in bilateral fronto-temporo-parietal cortices, suggesting the disruption of frontal subcortical circuit to be probably associated with the cognitive impairment of the patient. |
