Sporadic Pick's disease in a 28-year-old woman

HR Mowadat, EE Kerr and D StClair
University Department of Psychiatry, Royal Edinburgh Hospital, Morningside Park.

Pick's disease was diagnosed in a 28-year-old woman without a family history of dementia (or other psychiatric disorder), after an initial diagnosis of functional psychosis and management with ECT and neuroleptics. The case illustrates the need for detailed neurological and cognitive testing and consideration of neurodegenerative disorders even in young patients.
