A 70-year-old patient arrived at the emergency department to find herself wandering around the neighbourhood in a state of confusion and disorientation; she had been suffering from memory loss for several months and had difficulty performing household tasks that she had previously carried out without any problems.
She was referred to a neurologist where tests were carried out to rule out organic pathology and she was finally diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease.
