3303062017 | A rare progressive neurodegenerative disorder with typical onset between 50 and 65 years of age. Manifestation is of progressive impairment of higher visual processing skills and other posterior cortical functions without any evidence of ocular abnormalities. Prevalence is unknown, largely due to the lack of awareness of the syndrome and the inaccurate terminology referring to it. Alzheimer's disease is the most common underlying pathology, but cases attributable to Dementia with Lewy Bodies, corticobasal degeneration or prion disease have also been reported. | en | Definition | Active | Case sensitive | SNOMED CT core |
