Corticobasal syndrome (CBS) is a clinically defined syndrome with progressive movement and cortical dysfunction, caused by various underlying pathologies, most commonly tau-predominant pathologies such as progressive supranuclear palsy and corticobasal degeneration, or Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Lewy-type α-synucleinopathies (LTS), TDP-43 proteinopathies, and mixed pathologies may also underlie CBS. The clinical impact of these pathologies remains poorly understood.A Biomarker-Based Classification of Corticobasal Syndrome
