Apraxia of speech is a disorder of speech motor planning and/or programming. It is often caused by stroke. Recently a new neurodegenerative

disorder has been described where apraxia of speech is the only or predominant symptom. It was named primary

progressive apraxia of speech. Authors present a case report of 72 year old male suffering from progressive worsening of speech

for four years to near anarthria who has been finally diagnosed with primary progressive apraxia of speech.

Keywords: neurodegenerative disorders, speech disorders, primary progressive apraxia of speech
