    Abstract:
    The aim of this article is to present an update of a rare but interesting problem: "crossed aphasia". This term indicates the presence of aphasia after unilateral cerebral lesion of the hemisphere ipsilateral to the patient's dominant hand. We report two cases, review the most relevant literature, and analyze clinical, neuroanatomical, and neurophysiological aspects, taking in consideration the various interpretations proposed to explain this unusual language disorder.
