differ significantly in age, age of onset, education, CDR and MMSE. Of the 73 FTD patients, 11 (15.1%) had FTD combined with motor neuron disease (MND). Of the 66 FTLD patients who had been asked about the family history, 12(12.4%) reported positive family history of dementia of unidentified etiology. Conclusions: Demographic features of our cohort were comparable to those of other countries. However the ratio of FTLD/AD was lower than it was in other studies. Regarding the subtypes of FTLD, compared with the data from UK and Japan, FTD was more common compared to the data of a study done in Japan but the proportion was similar to those of a study performed in UK.
