Résumé
The differential diagnosis of a patient with cognitive, behavioral, and motor symptoms is broad. There is much overlap between neurocognitive disorders due to frontotemporal dementia and other subcortical dementia. A less known diagnosis, cerebellar cognitive affective syndrome (CCAS), should also be considered. Based on cerebellar, affective, and subcortical cognitive examination findings, our diagnosis is probable CCAS. The cerebellum should be considered as a possible etiology of frontal subcortical cognitive impairment.
