Abstract

Dementia as a diagnosis at any age is a clinical challenge in psychiatric practice. In recent research reports there have been many case series and anecdotal case reports of dementia with an onset below the age of 45 years. In this case report, we present the case of a 23 years old female that presented with psychotic features initially and on clinical examination and imaging was diagnosed as young onset frontotemporal dementia.

Keywords: Dementia, Young onset dementia, Fronto-temporal dementia.
