Frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD), often called frontotemporal dementia (FTD), is characterized by the progressive death of neurons in the frontal lobe and the anterior part of the temporal lobe of the brain, an area responsible for abstract thinking, behavioral adaptation, and certain aspects of language. It is caused by an abnormal accumulation of TDP-43 protein or tau protein and affects 10,000 to 20,000 people in France.
In this new episode of PODC'ALZ, we discuss the specifics of this disease with Dr. Isabelle Le Ber, a neurologist and researcher specializing in genetics, from symptoms to diagnosis, management, and treatments.
