According to the literature, the APP Ala713Thr mutation is associated with Alzheimer's disease and cerebral amyloid angiopathy. We describe a case of dementia clinically compatible with frontotemporal dementia in an APP Ala713Thr mutation carrier in which both [F-18] Florbetapir PET uptake and A beta(1-42) cerebrospinal fluid levels were normal. Further evidences are required to establish if this association is only incidental.
