The diagnosis of adult-onset Niemann-Pick disease type C (NPC) could be difficult because its primary symptoms [dementia and vertical supranuclear gaze palsy (VSGP)] are mainly seen in neurodegenerative dementias and progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). Our patient with dementia and asymmetric parkinsonism resembled corticobasal syndrome and after the appearance of VSGP, the criteria of PSP were fulfilled too. Cerebellar symptoms appeared late during the course of the disease, leading to the diagnosis of NPC at the age of 59 years.
