Semantic variant primary progressive aphasia(svPPA) is one of the language variants of frontotemporal dementia(FTD). In this variant, selective degeneration of the left anterior temporal lobe leads to a loss of semantic memory. Typical symptoms include poor confrontation naming, impaired single word comprehension, poor object/person knowledge, surface dyslexia, spared repetition, and spared motor speech with relatively preserved behavior and cognition. 1, record 3, English, - semantic%20variant%20primary%20progressive%20aphasia
