According to the literature, the APP Ala713Thr mutation is associated with Alzheimer's disease and cerebral amyloid angiopathy. We describe a case of dementia clinically compatible with frontotemporal dementia in an APP Ala713Thr mutation carrier in which both [18F]Florbetapir PET uptake and Aβ1-42 cerebrospinal fluid levels were normal. Further evidences are required to establish if this association is only incidental.

Abstract

According to the literature, the APP Ala713Thr mutation is associated with Alzheimer's disease and cerebral amyloid angiopathy. We describe a case of dementia clinically compatible with frontotemporal dementia in an APP Ala713Thr mutation carrier in which both [18F]Florbetapir PET uptake and Aβ1-42 cerebrospinal fluid levels were normal. Further evidences are required to establish if this association is only incidental.
