Case Report: Callosal disconnection syndrome manifesting as mixed frontal-callosal-posterior alien hand syndrome following extensive corpus callosum infarct [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2023
Alien hand syndrome (AHS) is a rare neurological phenomenon first described by Goldstein over a century ago. The most widely recognized variants in literature are frontal, callosal, and posterior AHS. AHS due to the corpus callosum lesion can occur alone

Pantomime comprehension and ideomotor apraxia. [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 1985
In a prior study it was shown that apraxic patients with posterior infarctions that included the parietal lobe could not discriminate between gestures. In this study these observations were replicated using a nonverbal paradigm in which the subjects did not have to discriminate between gestures, but instead had to comprehend their meaning.

Tapping, grasping and aiming in ideomotor apraxia

open access: yesNeuropsychologia, 2006
Very few studies have investigated sensorimotor control in apraxia using tasks that differ in movement complexity. Nevertheless, there is some evidence to suggest that spontaneous behaviour, although relatively preserved, can be rather clumsy or awkward, and that patients with ideomotor apraxia may have subtle kinematic abnormalities in movements made ...
