Primary Progressive Aphasia (PPA) is a degenerative condition characterized by deterioration in language for at least two years without deterioration in other cognitive domains. This report highlights the language profile in a 79-year-old male with progressive nonfluent aphasia (PNFA) who was assessed using the Western Aphasia Battery and the Semantic battery. Initial assessment revealed that the subject had nonfluent speech with relatively preserved comprehension and significant difficulty with naming. The subject's performance on the picture-pointing task was superior to the confrontation-naming task and strengthened the diagnosis of PNFA. On follow-up evaluation after a year his language abilities across tasks showed significant deterioration. (Contains 1 table.)
