The authors investigate a case of agraphia induced by a left parieto-occipital tumor (glioma) in a right-handed 67 year-old patient. After three successive neuropsychological examinations it still proves immensely difficult to determine whether defects of spontaneous writing, dictation and copy are due to apraxia, alexia or motor disturbances. The authors discuss whether the clinical findings indicate a "pure agraphia" syndrome or "amnesic agraphia". Finally, problems of aetiology and lesional localisation are examined in the light of the literature. (Acta neurol. belg., 1977, 77, 321-330).
作者研究了一名67岁右利手患者因左顶枕叶肿瘤(胶质瘤)诱发失写症的病例。经过连续三次神经心理学检查,仍然极难确定自发书写、听写和抄写缺陷是由失用症、失读症还是运动障碍引起的。作者讨论了临床发现是否表明存在“纯失写症”综合征或“遗忘性失写症”。最后,根据文献对病因和病灶定位问题进行了研究。(《比利时神经学学报》,1977年,77卷,321 - 330页)
