  • Title: Transcortical sensory aphasia following a left frontal lobe infarction probably due to anomalously represented language areas.
    Author: Kim EJ, Suh MK, Lee BH, Park KC, Ku BD, Chung CS, Na DL.
    Journal: J Clin Neurosci; 2009 Nov; 16(11):1482-5. PubMed ID: 19581090.
    Abstract:
    A 57-year-old right-handed man presented with speech disturbance 1 day prior to his admission. The standardized aphasia test batteries showed transcortical sensory aphasia. MRI revealed a left frontal and insular infarct. Positron emission tomography scans also revealed a glucose hypometabolism in the same region as the infarcted area on MRI. Repeated aphasia testing showed that his aphasia only partially improved.
