A 22 year old right-handed man suffered a viral meningoencephalitis, possibly herpetic, resulting in bilateral damage to the temporal lobes as confirmed by appropriate clinical, electrophysiological and neuroradiological studies. Extended clinical neuropsychological evaluation documented all the characteristic features of the syndrome described by Klüver and Bucy following bilateral ablation of the temporal lobes in adult Rhesus monkeys, including "psychic blindness," oral exploration, hypermetamorphic impulse to action," lack of emotional responsiveness, aberrant sexual behavior, and an insatiable appetite. Additionally, a severe Wernicke's aphasia and a profound memory disorder were evident. The significance of these features as regards limbic function in the human is discussed.
一名22岁的右利手男性患病毒性脑膜脑炎，可能为疱疹性，经适当的临床、电生理和神经放射学研究证实，导致双侧颞叶受损。广泛的临床神经心理学评估记录了成年恒河猴双侧颞叶切除后Klüver和Bucy所描述综合征的所有特征，包括“精神性盲”、口部探索、“过度变形的行动冲动”、缺乏情感反应、异常性行为和贪食。此外，明显存在严重的韦尼克失语症和严重的记忆障碍。本文讨论了这些特征在人类边缘系统功能方面的意义。
