Abstract
|
|
|
Apraxia of speech (AOS) is the impairment of motor programming. However, the exact nature of this deficit remains unclear. In particular, AOS without other speech-language defi cit is called pure AOS, but it is very rare. When diagnosing AOS, the characteristic of articulation is considered a crucial criterion, which has been proposed for diff erentiating AOS from phonological and dysarthric disorders. Th e present study reports on pure AOS in a 37-year-old right-handed male after a left insular, front, temporal infarction. Th is report may be useful for further AOS study and diagnosis in the clinical setting.
