  • Title: [Present day concepts of the cerebral organization of language based on findings in bilingual Oriental patients with crossed aphasia (author's transl)].
    Author: April RS.
    Journal: Rev Neurol (Paris); 1979; 135(4):375-8. PubMed ID: 504868.
    Abstract:
    Two right-handed bilingual (English and Cantonese) Chinese patients were observed to have crossed aphasia. A preliminary study of a multiracial population with left hemiplegia did not show a higher incidence of aphasia in Chinese subjects. These two extremely rare cases are interesting examples of a particular type of cerebral organization of language.
