Zusammenfassung

Die Liquoruntersuchung bei der Alzheimer Demenz (AD) dient traditionell zunächst zum differentialdiagnostischen Ausschluß überwiegend entzündlicher Erkrankungen, deren klinisches Bild sich in einem Demenzsyndrom manifestieren können. Alle chronisch verlaufenden Enzephalitiden können beispielsweise das Bild einer Demenz hervorrufen. Infektionskrankheiten mit Spirochäten (Neurolues und Lyme-Borreliose) und humanen Immundefizienzviren (HIV) sind weitere Beispiele für mögliche Einsatzgebiete der Liquoranalyse (Tabelle 9.1). Einen Sonderfall stellt u.a. der Normaldruckhydrozephalus dar, bei dem durch eine therapeutische Punktion bzw. Liquordrainage oft eine Verbesserung des klinischen Bildes innerhalb von Minuten bis Stunden erreicht werden kann.
