TL;DR: An epileptic patient who, during cortical stimulation of her posterior superior temporal gyrus, demonstrated frequent phonemic paraphasias, decreased repetition of words, and yet had intact semantic knowledge, suggest that cortical dysfunction alone may induce conduction aphasia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lexical agraphia. Further support for the two-system hypothesis of linguistic agraphia.
TL;DR: Eight patients with acquired agraphia were studied using the same writing tests and were compared with normal and brain-damaged controls to support the hypothesis that there are two dissociable spelling systems and these spelling systems are disrupted by focal lesions in separate but distinct brain regions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Planum temporale asymmetry and language dominance
TL;DR: Measurements on magnetic resonance imaging scans of patients who had selective hemispheric anesthesia or Wada testing performed for language lateralization suggest that planum temporale asymmetries determined by MR are associated with language dominance and may predict language laterality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Morphologic cerebral asymmetries and handedness : the pars triangularis and planum temporale
TL;DR: Measurements of the PTr and PT appear to be important indexes of the known functional asymmetries of the perisylvian speech-language regions.
