Corticobasal syndrome with visual hallucinations and probable REM-sleep behavior disorder: an autopsied case report of a patient with CBD and LBD pathology.

Corticobasal syndrome and dementia with Lewy bodies are clinical presentations with unique and overlapping features but distinct pathological substrates. We report the case of an 80 year-old man who presented with apraxia, rigidity, slowness, right arm myoclonus, a 10-year history of probable REM-sleep behavior disorder, and later developed visual hallucinations. At autopsy, he had pathological features of corticobasal degeneration, and Lewy body disease confined to the brainstem.
