Dream Enactment Behavior Disorder Associated with Pallido-Nigro-Luysian Degeneration and Tau Proteinopathy.

We present a comprehensive clinico-pathological discussion of a patient with PNLA. Besides parkinsonism and vertical supranuclear gaze palsy, the patient also had a sleep disorder, clinically suggestive of REM behavioral disorder, which has not been previously reported in PNLA. We expand the clinical phenotype of this rare condition and provide neuropathological evidence for the associated abnormalities.
