Aim: To investigate the patterns of inheritance and gene mutation status in early-onset dementia (EOD). Methods: Data were collected on 202 consecutive patients presenting to an EOD clinic. Early-onset Alzheimer’s disease (EOAD, n 120) and early-onset frontotemporal dementia (EOFTD, n 82) were studied. Results: The majority of participants, 72.5 % with EOAD and 74.4 % with EOFTD, did not have a positive family history of dementia. An autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance was observed in 14.2 % of patients with EOAD and 13.4 % of patients with FTD. Of those with an autosomal dominant pattern of inheri-tance, 11.8 % of EOAD and 45.5 % of FTD probands had known pathogenic mutations. Only 1.6 % of the total population of EOAD and 7.3 % of...
