Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 24-2 (April 1982) . - p.173-182 Titre : Aphasia following right striato-insular infarction in a left-handed child: a clinico-radiological study Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : José-Manuel FERRO, Auteur ; Isabel Pavão MARTINS, Auteur ; Francisco PINTO, Auteur ; A. CASTRO-CALDAS, Auteur Année de publication : 1982 Article en page(s) : p.173-182 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The case of six-year-old girl with non-fluent aphasia following a subcortical right-hemispheric cerebrovascular accident is reported. Examination by computerised tomographic scan revealed a right paraventricular area of diminished density involving the internal capsule, lenticular nucleus and the insula. The speech disturbance was followed by typical right-hemispheric signs and by left-channel extinction in dichotic listening tests. The aphasia cleared in two weeks, paralleled by an improvement in left-channel performance, suggesting that language recovery was dependent on right-hemispheric structures.
