Resumo

As doenças degenerativas primárias abrangem a maioria das causas de demência, com a avaliação neuropsicológica contribuindo com o diagnóstico diferencial e auxiliando na avaliação da gravidade do comprometimento cognitivo. A doença de Alzheimer é a principal causa de demência primária, com comprometimento em testes de avaliação de memória explícita (declarativa, episódica), destacando-se das demais áreas cognitivas. Outras causas de demência, como demência por corpúsculos de Lewy e demências fronto-temporais apresentam maior alteração em testes de função executiva. A avaliação neuropsicológica na doença de Huntington revela um comprometimento precoce na memória explícita (dificuldade no processamento de informações). O exame neuropsicológico nas demais causas de demências não possui particularidades que as diferenciem.
