Abstract
|
|
|
Mirror writing is the simultaneous process of reversing individual letters and the writing direction. We present a case of a 64-yr-old, right-handed female patient who developed temporary mirror writing following a left corona radiata infarction. When she wrote with her left hand due to her right hemiparesis, she exhibited mirror writing on spontaneous writing of letters and digits. She also showed some visuospatial disturbances and right-left disorientation. Underlying mechanism of mirror writing is discussed with this case.
