Abstract

Primary progressive aphasia (PPA), was first defined by Mesulam in 1982 as a ''slowly progressive language dysfunction without generalized dementia''. PPA is a neurodegenerative syndrome usually presented with anomia and reduced speech fluency, it is characterized by deterioration in language for least 2 years. Focal left perisylvian degeneration is thought to be responsible for this clinical syndrome. We present a 65 years old male patient, who presented with a progressive decline of language function, mainly in naming skills. Others mental functions were relatively preserved as well as an independence in the activity of daily livings. His cranial MRI imaging displayed a focal asymmetric left atrophy in the left anteriomedial temporal lobe. Asymmetrical hypoperfusion in the left parieto-temporal lobes were seen in his SPECT study. This case with clinical and radiological evidence of PPA is presented.

Özet

Primer progressif afazi, ilk kez 1982 yılında Mesulam tarafından tanımlanmış, generalize demans bulguları olmadan görülen yavaş progressif bir dil fonksiyon bozukluğudur.Akıcı konuşmanın bozulması ve adlandırma güçlüğü en belirgin verbal disfonksiyonlardır ve diğer kognitif alanlardaki bozukluklar hastalığın ilk 2 yılından sonra ortaya çıkabilir. Klinik tablonun fokal sol perisilvian dejenerasyon sonucu oluştuğu düşünülmektedir. Biz burada, özellikle kelime bulma güçlüğü ve adlandırma bozukluğu olan 65 yaşında bir erkek hastayı sunduk. Hastamızın diğer kognitif fonksiyonları korunmuştu ve günlük aktivitelerini de bağımsız olarak devam ettirebilmekteydi.Kraniyal MRG'sinde sol anteriomedial temporal lobda fokal asimetrik atrofi görüldü. Yapılan SPECT incelemesinde de sol parieto-temporal bölgede fokal hipoperfüzyon tespit edildi. PPA tanısı alan hasta klinik ve radyolojik bulguları ile sunuldu.
