The etiology of frontal lobe dementia of non-Alzheimer type (FLD) is still unknown. There is strong evidence of genetic factors with positive heredity. In this paper, a Swedish family, with several generations affected by FLD is described. In 3 patients typical FLD was confirmed postmortem. The clinical and neuropathological similarities between the patients are impressive.
