TI  - Corticobasal Degeneration Misdiagnosed As Musculoskeletal Disease: A Challenging 
      Diagnosis of Higher-Level Gait Disease.

AB  - Gait disorders are common in the elderly as there are various causes of 
      neurological and non-neurological conditions. On the other hand, most of the gait 
      parameters do change with advancing age which is identified as age-related 
      physiological changes in gait. At this point, the discrimination between 
      age-related physiological changes and gait disorders may be strictly challenging. 
      After identifying gait as an abnormal pattern, classification of it and making 
      the responsible pathophysiology also require high-level expertise in this regard. 
      Herein, we present a rare patient with corticobasal degeneration (CBD) who had 
      admitted initially due to complaints of gait problems. Over a long time, the 
      patient had received the misdiagnosis of gait abnormality due to musculoskeletal 
      problems by multiple physicians. However, the detailed neurological exam showed a 
      higher level gait disorder (HLGD). Further investigations at this point yielded 
      the diagnosis of CBD.
