Corticobasal Syndrome
Corticobasal Syndrome (CBS) is a brain disease that affects movement, thinking, and coordination. It occurs due to injury in parts of the brain that control planning and body movement, typically by the buildup of a protein named tau. People with CBS may have stiffness or shakiness in a leg or arm, trouble using one side of the body, poor coordination, or sudden jerks in muscles. It can affect thinking, speech, and understanding as well. One of the peculiar aspects of CBS is that a patient will have the sensation that his or her hand isn’t his or hers, a phenomenon known as “alien limb.” CBS is also misdiagnosed as Parkinson’s disease or stroke in the early stages but does not respond well to medication for Parkinson’s. It typically affects people above the age of 60 and worsens slowly over time. No treatment can cure it, but physical therapy, speech therapy, and medical care can help improve symptoms and daily activity.
