This patient presented with corticobasal syndrome, but upon autopsy was found to have neuropathologic changes consistent with Alzheimer’s disease. (A) Parasagittal atrophy was noted when examining the fixed tissue. Immunohistochemical evaluation with a tau antibody revealed (B) a paucity of neurofibrillary tangles, (C) relative to the abundance of mature and extracellular tangles noted in the parietal lobe. A 1X magnification of the (D) parietal cortex shows an appreciably higher tau burden compared to the (E) hippocampus. Scale bar at 50 μm for 20x images.
