Linda’s comment Reversible dementias are rare and account for approximately 1.5% of all dementias. The most frequent etiology is represented by neurosurgical causes such as benign tumours, adult chronic hydrocephalus (so-called « normal pressure » hydrocephalus) or subdural hematoma, which are easily revealed by neuroimaging.
