Our results confirm the significant clinical and instrumental heterogeneity of IVLBCL. Neuropathological evidence of the preferential involvement of frontotemporal neocortices, potentially conditioning the clinical phenotype, could be relevant to reach an early diagnosis. Finally, given the therapeutic implications of its misdiagnosis with CJD, we emphasize the utility of prion RT-QuIC as a test for ruling out CJD in these patients.
