Start Page Caregivers Case Histories Features and Glossary Network Support Groups This illness is frustrating to patients, their families, and the physicians who care for them. Since insight and memory tends to be preserved throughout most of their illness, depression is common and should be treated when it evolves. Physical, occupational, and speech therapy can be helpful although as the illness progresses third party payers tend to not reimburse for these services, unfortunately. Medications provide little benefit, but agents such as Sinemet are worth trying. All sleep disorders such as sleep apnea and restless legs syndrome should be evaluated and treated as improvement in quality of life for patients and their loved ones can occur. Please realize that many gifted scientists from around the world are devoted to finding the cause of and cure for corticobasal degeneration. Through the Rare Dementia Registry we will keep you abreast of significant advances in CBD research. Thanks to all who strive to optimize quality of life for those confronting this illness.

Corticobasal degeneration is a progressive neurological disorder characterized by nerve cell loss and atrophy (shrinkage) of multiple areas of the brain including the cerebral cortex and the basal ganglia. Corticobasal degeneration progresses gradually. Initial symptoms, which typically begin at or around age 60, may first appear on one side of the body (unilateral), but eventually affect both sides as the disease progresses. Symptoms are similar to those found in Parkinson disease, such as poor coordination, akinesia (an absence of movements)

WE MOVE 204 West 84th Street New York, NY 10024 E-mail: wemove@wemove.org Corticobasal Degeneration Overview What is corticobasal degeneration? Corticobasal degeneration (CBD) is a rare neurological disease in which parts of the brain deteriorate or degenerate. CBD is also known as corticobasal ganglionic degeneration, or CBGD. Several regions of the brain degenerate in CBD. The cortex, or outer layer of the brain, is severely affected, especially the fronto-parietal regions, located near the center-top of the head. Other, deeper brain regions are also affected, including parts of the basal ganglia, hence the name "corticobasal" degeneration. The combined loss of brain tissue in all these areas causes the symptoms and findings seen in people with CBD. Causes of Corticobasal Degeneration Our Mission Board of Directors Funders ...

Is there any treatment? There is no treatment available to slow the course of corticobasal degeneration, and the symptoms of the disease are generally resistant to therapy. Antiparkinsonian drugs do not produce any significant or sustained improvement. Clonazepam may help the myoclonus. Occupational, physical, and speech therapy may help in managing disability. What is the prognosis?

This is a rare progressive neurological disease that causes disturbance of mental processes and motor skills. The disease is named after the areas of the brain that are principally affected. Cortico refers to the cortex, which is the outer layer of the brain, and basal refers to the basal ganglia, which are deep structures in the brain that control motor skills. In these brain regions, there is more significant loss of brain cells than in normal aging. ~The cause of brain cell loss is not known, but there is excessive accumulation of a certain substance called tau protein. This also occurs in other similar neurological diseases such a progressive supranuclear palsy or PSP. Who may get affected by corticobasal degeneration?

Some said it was too much to take on at this time of life. However John coped well and was happy in his new job. We married in 1993, this being my second marriage; John was a bachelor who had lived with his elderly Mother. We cared for her jointly until her death in 1996 at the age of 86. John helped around the house cooking, washing up, gardening, DIY etc, we got on famously. He enjoyed playing golf and has won many trophies and cups. He also enjoyed motor cycle restoration and riding a bike of his own. At the age of fifty-eight John was offered early retirement, we thought about it and decided we could do so many things together, we enjoyed walking and had holidayed in Scotland, Yorkshire, and Lake District as well as locally; so John retired. However some eighteen months later at sixty John developed problems with his walking. His left leg, as if it was on a spring, would suddenly have a mind of its own. Also his left arm would rise on its own. He also experienced problems finding light switches and hammering and tightening screws when doing his DIY. Golf became harder as his hands would waver about for a few seconds and he had little control of the club. Also the grass looked vivid green and he had the feeling of it coming up towards him. He had weight loss - some two stone, along with this there was muscle loss and weakness. He lacked strength in everyday tasks, indeed some tasks became impossible.

Semantic ÊD SSP ToD Corticobasal degeneration Corticobasal degeneration (CBD) is a slowly progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by an asymmetrical akinetic-rigid syndrome associated with cognitive (apraxia and aphasia) and extrapyramidal motor dysfunction (rigidity and dystonia). Moderate dementia emerges sometimes late in the course of the disease (Rinne et al., 1994). Key words: myoclonus, dystonia, alien limb, occulomotor apraxia Prevalence: 4.0 -7.3 /100.000 Incidence: 0.6-0.9 new cases per 100.000 person/year Neuropathology Neuropathological examination shows gliosis, neuronal loss, presence of achromatic ballooned neurons, neuritic changes and neurofibrillary tangles (Paulus et al., 1990 ; Ksiezak-Reding et al., 1994; Feany et al., 1994; BuŽe-Scherrer et al., 1996b) and astrocytic plaques. There is an overlap between progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and CBD (Feany et al., 1996), and it would be most helpful to distinguish these two pathologies on a neuropathological or immunochemical basis. By comparison, CBD is less prevalent, and usually dysplays a more severe cortical atrophy with fronto-parietal predominance partly sparing the central area.
