The agraphia of Alzheimer's disease
Neurology, 1992Hypothesizing that agraphia in Alzheimer's disease (AD) reflects disturbances in multiple cognitive domains, we evaluated writing samples from 33 patients meeting strict criteria for probable AD. We found agraphia to be common on a standard narrative writing task. When compared with 41 education- and age-matched normal control subjects, AD patients had

Damage to the left upper parietal lobule causes pure agraphia. However, we experienced a patient who exhibited musical agraphia following such a lesion after the agraphia improved. The patient was a 53-year-old female piano teacher. After surgery, she exhibited agraphia and musical agraphia.

Abstract Benedikt(1865) applied the term agraphia disorders of writing in 1865. Ogle (1867) found that, although aphasia and agraphia usually occur together, they were separable. He concluded that there were distinct cerebral centers for writing and speaking that were anatomically proximate.

Abstract Agraphia may be defined simply as a loss or impairment of the ability to produce written language caused by brain damage. There is nothing simple about agraphia, however. In fact, the complexities of written language disorder have made useful clinical correlations difficult.

Eight patients with acquired agraphia were studied using the same writing tests and were compared with normal and brain-damaged controls. Four patients fulfilled the criteria for lexical agraphia and on CT scan had lesions of the posterior angular gyrus that spared the supramarginal gyrus.

Progressive Peripheral Agraphia
Neurocase, 2001We describe RW, a patient who presented with writing difficulty that deteriorated over time. While her graphemes were typically legible, her writing was extremely slow, and her letters were written in an inconsistent and heterogeneous manner (e.g. each "a" in the word "banana" was produced in a different way).

Neurology, 1976
This typical case of alexia without agraphia, caused by an astrocytoma, is the first recorded case in the literature of alexia without agraphia with a right homonymous hemianopia caused by a tumor. This case differs from previously reported cases of the syndrome by its fluctuating clinical course and its slow progression.

Study of neuropsychological sequelae of a focal acquired brain lesion may bring out and help delineate the features of a compensated developmental language disorder and its anatomical substrate. A left-handed man with a history of phonological developmental dyslexia and dysgraphia learned in early adulthood to read and write using a lexical system ...

Agraphia in Alzheimer’s Disease
Dementia and Geriatric Cognitive Disorders, 1999Writing disorders are an early manifestation of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), often more severe than language difficulties. AD patients produce shorter and less informative written descriptions of a complex picture than controls. These abbreviated texts also include many intrusions, semantic substitutions, and misspellings.
