Pathogenic hexanucleotide repeat expansions in C9orf72 are the commonest genetic cause of frontotemporal dementia and/or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. There is growing interest in intermediate repeat expansions in C9orf72 and their relationship to a wide range of neurological presentations, including Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, progressive supranuclear palsy, corticobasal degeneration, and corticobasal syndromes. To assess the prevalence of intermediate C9orf72 repeat expansions in a large cohort of prospectively-recruited patients clinically diagnosed with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), corticobasal syndrome (CBS), and atypical parkinsonism…
