Pure word deafness and bilateral posterior perisylvian softenings: report of a case with neuropsychological-C.A.T. correlation.

M Dalla Pria, H Spinnler, G Vallar.   

Abstract

A case of Pure Word Deafness (PWD) with bilateral perisylvian softenings is described. The C.A.T. findings fit the classical anatomical counterpart of PWD: a nearly complete acoustic disconnection of the Wernicke area. The associated severe apraxic disorders are discussed.
