Deskripsi

We describe a patient with a cerebral infarction localized mainly in the left posterior frontal and anterior parietal subcortices who experienced a Broca's aphasia which evolved into a conduction aphasia. Such a rare recovery pattern of aphasia appeared to result from amelioration of the damage to the left precentral gyrus.
