Aphasia with Hemiplegia of the Right Side; the Result of Injury to the Left Hemisphere
نویسنده
چکیده
By F. W. IIigginson, Lie. Med. Bub, Civil Surgeon, Kheri. Professor Trousseau, in his lecture on Aphasia, states that Dr. Mare Dax, of Soinmieres, was the first to notice that patients suffering from aphasia, when pralyzed at the same time, were paralyzed on the right side, and that consequently the anatomical lesion was seated in the left hemisphere; the following case, being an example, will probably be of interest:? On the 8th September last Salik, Hindu, aged GO year3, was admitted into the Kheri Sadr Dispensary : seven days before he had been struck on the head with a lathi; his friends said that since then he had been perfectly speechless.

In this case report study, we offered a complete report o...
متن کاملDoes vestibular stimulation activate thalamocortical mechanisms that reintegrate impaired cortical regions?
Caloric stimulation induced a transient reversal of multimodal hemispatial cognitive deficits in an 81-year-old woman with an acute left cerebral hemisphere stroke. The patient had unawareness of her right hand (asomatognosia), right-sided visual unawareness (hemineglect), aphasia and right-sided weakness (hemiplegia) prior to the stimulation. Transient improvements in impaired sensory, motor, ...
متن کاملThe effect of low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on the treatment of aphasia caused by cerebrovascular accident (CVA)
Background: Aphasia is a common outcome of Cerebrovascular Accident (CVA) in which clinical interventions have limited effectiveness. Some evidence suggests that noninvasive stimulation of the brain can have beneficial effects in the treatment of CVA induced aphasia. In patients with motor aphasia, repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) is used to facilitate long-term improvement i...
متن کاملBabington's aphasia-overcoming left hemisphere trauma.
He was felled by the shell burst and briefly unconscious, and had sustained a left parietal penetrating injury which made him mute and hemiplegic. He was evacuated by stretcher, ambulance and plane. ‘During the flight I felt something stiff and cold on the right side of my chest. I puzzled about it for a while before it dawned on me that it was my right arm, heavy, insensate and quite paralysed...
متن کاملRemission of anosognosia for right hemiplegia and neglect after caloric vestibular stimulation.
Neglect and related phenomena, as anosognosia for hemiplegia and somatoparaphrenia, are often associated to right-hemisphere lesions. These deficits can be alleviated by caloric vestibular stimulation, but little is known about the efficacy of this physiological intervention on neglect following left-hemisphere lesions. Here we report the case of an ambidextrous left brain-damaged patient with ...
