We report on the infrequent verbalisation disorder called "post-traumatic mutism" observed in 12 subjects with severe traumatic head injuries. These patients during the recovery of their conditions showed for a certain period a speechlessness even though some of them could communicate through gestures and writing. The nature and the possible mechanism of the disorder are discussed.
我们报告了在12例重度颅脑损伤患者中观察到的一种罕见的言语障碍,即“创伤后缄默症”。这些患者在病情恢复期间的一段时间内表现为沉默不语,尽管他们中的一些人能够通过手势和书写进行交流。本文对该障碍的性质及可能机制进行了讨论。
