Highlights
- •Chromosome 5p deletion (5p-) syndrome may present with neurodegenerative features.
- •5p- pathology is variable possibly with olfactory aplasia and/or polymicrogyria.
- •5p- pathology includes cerebral neuronal inclusions like cortical Lewy bodies.
- •5p- pathology may show α-Synucleinopathy in the limbic and paralimbic cortex.
- •α-Synucleinopathy may be involved in the pathophysiology of 5p- syndrome.
