Abstract
The logopenic variant of primary progressive aphasia (PPA-L), which has been known as the subtype of the primary progressive aphasia (PPA), prominently shows the decreases in speech speed and long sentence comprehension, while showing the relatively little damages in comprehension of single word or grammar. We report a patient who suffered from progressive aphasia diagnosed as PPA-L by clinical and neuropsychological analysis.
