Abstract
The clinical phenotype of frontotemporal dementia patients carrying progranulin (GRN) mutations is known to be heterogeneous. We present a patient with corticobasal syndrome and a family with progressive aphasia and behavioral features who were found to have the same p.Gln257Profs*27 mutation. These cases depict the variability of GRN mutation carriers regarding clinical presentation and age of onset. In addition to giving a detailed report of a GRN mutation, we highlight the importance of searching for the presence of GRN mutations in selected sporadic cases and suggest a broadening of GRN genetic screening to better understand the clinical spectrum of these mutations.
