- Posterior_cortical_atrophy abstract "Posterior cortical atrophy (PCA), also called Benson's syndrome, is a form of dementia which is usually considered an atypical variant of Alzheimer's disease. The disease causes atrophy of the back (posterior) part of the cerebral cortex, resulting in the progressive disruption of complex visual processing. PCA was first described by D. Frank Benson in 1988.In rare cases, PCA "can also be due to other diseases including dementia with Lewy bodies and Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease."PCA usually affects people at an earlier age than typical cases of Alzheimer's disease, with initial symptoms often experienced in people in their mid-fifties or early sixties. This was the case with writer Terry Pratchett, who went public in 2007 about being diagnosed with PCA. In The Mind's Eye, neurologist Oliver Sacks examines the case of a noted concert pianist, Lilian Kallir (1931-2004), who suffered from PCA.".
