- Abstract
- Early detection of AD in its initial or preclinical stage has become increasingly important. We report a 73-year-old woman who was confirmed to have AD by a cortical biopsy performed concomitantly during a shunt operation for hydrocephalus. The triads of hydrocephalus improved after the operation, as did follow-up neuropsychological and FDG-PET findings. However, 2.5 years after the operation, the patient developed cognitive declines with abnormal behaviors, which was considered to be an evolved form of AD from the preclinical stage. Key Words : Normal pressure hydrocephalus, Alzheimer’s disease, Brain biopsy
