title: [Frontal and temporal onset of brain atrophy. Clinical and instrumental findings].
abstract: We report the cases of a 70-year old man with left temporal brain atrophy and of a 39-year-old man with neuropathologically verified frontal lobe degeneration (FLD) of Non-Alzheimer type. 10 patients with FLD collected during a prospective study on degenerative dementia had more severe volumetric brain changes and less severe quantitative band power changes than a group of matched patients with clinically diagnosed Alzheimer's disease.
