Zusammenfassung

Demenzen sind Krankheiten des höheren Lebensalters, aber keine unausweichliche Folge des Alterns. Ab dem 60. Lebensjahr steigt die Prävalenz sowohl der primär degenerativen wie auch der vaskulären Demenzerkrankungen rasch an. Sie beginnt mit 3% bei den 65–74jährigen und erreicht 47% bei den über 85jährigen (Evans et al. 1989). Am häufigsten sind die Alzheimersche Krankheit und vaskuläre Demenzen. Bei 10–15% der Demenzkranken liegen potentiell reversible Grundkrankheiten vor, bei denen eine partielle oder vollständige Rückbildung durch spezifische Therapie erzielbar ist.
