摘要：Dementia is a chronic and irreversible brain impairment characterised by significant cognitive deficits. Severe symptoms of the aforesaid disease interfere with normal life functions and daily activities. Dementia usually develops with advancing age, i.e. after the age of 85, and when it develops in people younger than age 65, it is referred to as early onset dementia. This paper presents a 53-year-old male patient. Provisional diagnosis was established while further diagnostic workup included psycho-diagnostic assessment, neurological exam, and brain CT. Such workup confirmed the development of dementia, i.e. early-onset Alzheimer’s disease accompanied by depressed mood with impaired vision.
