Abstract

Introduction Frontotemporal Neurocognitive Disorder (FTNCD) is a neurodegenerative disorder with various subtypes. Behavioral symptoms of FTNCD include apathy, disinhibition and impulsivity, socially inappropriate behavior, compulsive/ritualistic behavior, and dietary changes [1]. Language deficits present as loss of fluency with obvious word finding difficulties or fluent speech with loss of semantic meaning [2]. Cognitive symptoms are executive function deficits with early sparing of visual-spatial skills [1]. Here we report a case with behavioral-variant FTNCD (bv-FTNCD) presenting as insomnia to highlight the issue of early detection for immediate management to improve prognosis.
