Three groups of patients with orbital frontal lesions secondary to leukotomy were compared to psychiatric and normal control groups on a series of tasks involving language. The results indicated that chronic orbital frontal lesions, at least in the patients in this study, do not affect language as defined by the tasks used in the study. The frontal lobes, when implicated in language, appear to require dorsal-lateral or medial cortical involvement.
将三组因脑白质切断术导致眶额病变的患者与精神科对照组和正常对照组进行了一系列涉及语言的任务比较。结果表明，至少在本研究的患者中，慢性眶额病变并不影响该研究所使用任务所定义的语言。当额叶与语言有关时，似乎需要背外侧或内侧皮质的参与。
