pick's disease - rare progressive degenerative brain disease Definition for Pick's disease Neurologists currently use the term "Pick's disease" to mean specifically one of the pathological subtypes of frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD). more Neurologists currently use the term "Pick's disease" to mean specifically one of the pathological subtypes of frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD). The pathological hallmark of Pick's disease are Pick bodies. These are spherical cytoplasmic inclusions found within neurons in affected portions of the brain. They cause neurons to swell, taking on a "ballooned" appearance. Pick bodies contain the protein Tau, and hence the disease is also referred to as a tauopathy (along with progressive supranuclear palsy, corticobasal degeneration, and others). less some common symptoms change in cognition cognitive defect difficulty speaking poor coordination some related diagnoses 1 - 7 of 64 diagnoses intracranial tumor subdural hematoma head injury Parkinsonism transient ischemic attacks vertebrobasilar insufficiency syndrome intracranial arteriovenous malformations   more do i have 'Pick's disease'?
