“…Ballooned neurons are not distinctive and their absence or rarity does not preclude the diagnosis of CBD (Dickson et al, 2002;Wakabayashi & Takahashi, 2004). 4R-tau-positive Pick body-like inclusions have already been associated with several conditions, including CBD and PSP (Armstrong, Cairns, & Lantos, 2000;Ikeda, Akiyama, Arai, & Tsushiya, 2002;Kovacs & Budka, 2010;Kovacs et al, 2012;Miki, Mori, Hori, Kaimori, & Wakabayashi, 2009). In our case, the main neuropathological features consistent with CBD are the considerable cortical and subcortical involvement, the numerous astrocytic plaques and the extensive tau-immunoreactive cell processes in both gray matter and white matter (Armstrong et al, 2000;Dickson et al, 2002;Forman et al, 2002;Kouri, Murray, et al, 2011;Murray et al, 2007).…”
