This case study involves the differential diagnosis of aphasia versus dementia. However, the case of Dr. JJ is instructive from a number of aspects, presented here as “cautionary notes” which are intended to remind clinicians of sometimes-forgotten interpersonal issues in the diagnosis of disorders of speech and language. This case also is intended to illustrate that merely distinguishing between dementia and aphasia is sometimes inadequate, particularly when potentially transmittable (and in some cases, curable) dementias might be involved.
