  • Title: Buccofacial apraxia without aphasia due to a right parietal lesion.
    Author: Kramer JH, Delis DC, Nakada T.
    Journal: Ann Neurol; 1985 Oct; 18(4):512-4. PubMed ID: 4073845.
    Abstract:
    Buccofacial praxis in right-handers is thought to be mediated by the left hemisphere. We present the case of a right-handed man without family history of sinistrality who exhibited a buccofacial apraxia following a unilateral right parietal infarction. Other findings such as intact language, visuospatial impairment, and hemi-inattention are more characteristic of right posterior lesions.
