Abstract
A 63-year-old man presented with a 4-year history of insidious onset and gradual progression of visual symptoms including right homonymous hemianopsia, alexia, and simultanagnosia with preserved memory. Magnetic resonance imaging, perfusion single-photon emission computed tomography, and fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomographic scans revealed strikingly asymmetric left parieto-occipital abnormality. Neuropsychological testing was performed. The differential diagnosis, pathologic findings, genetic testing results, and diagnosis are discussed.Entities:
