A patient is described who presented with a disturbance of body cognition confined to the left side of the body. She showed difficulties in naming the left fingers and in moving the named left fingers. She also showed great difficulty in pointing to named parts of the body with her left hand. Earlier in the course of the disease she showed a personification phenomenon of the left hand. Brain MRI showed involvement of the entire corpus callosum, probably due to occlusion of a branch of the anterior cerebral artery. It is speculated that this syndrome is caused by disconnection of the right hemisphere from the left hemispheric body schema.
描述了一名患者，其出现了局限于身体左侧的身体认知障碍。她在说出左手手指名称以及移动所命名的左手手指方面存在困难。她在用左手指向身体的指定部位时也表现出极大困难。在疾病过程的早期，她表现出左手的拟人化现象。脑部磁共振成像显示胼胝体全部受累，可能是由于大脑前动脉一个分支的闭塞所致。据推测，该综合征是由右半球与左半球身体图式的分离引起的。
