The International Journal of Psychiatry in Medicine, 1992
A case is described in which a patient had pseudoneurological symptoms that were present only upon direct observation or when the patient was in clinical test situations. The differential diagnosis of apraxia is discussed as well as clinical suggestions for evaluating patients with suspected factitious apraxia.

Neurology, 1987
A 39-year-old right-handed woman suffered a ruptured pericallosal aneurysm. Serial MRI studies showed damage to the genu and most of the body of the corpus callosum but not the splenium. Both supplementary motor areas (SMA) appeared intact. We studied the patient's praxis performance at intervals over a 4-month period with a standardized battery.

Journal of Neurology, 1983
Ideational apraxia is a rare behavioural disturbance observed in patients with a lesion in the posterior part of the hemisphere dominant for language. The main feature is an impairment in carrying out sequences of actions requiring the use of various objects in the correct order necessary to achieve an intended purpose. The syndrome cannot be explained

A case of ‘palpatory’ apraxia is reported. The apraxia was characterized by clumsiness of the left hand in the manipulation of objects with preservation of power and finger motility in visual imitation. From the analysis of the patient’s behavior and associated sensory findings, a defect of a higher-order sensory system was speculated as a basis of ...

Explanation in apraxia with consequences for the concept of apraxia of speech
Brain and Language, 1979In this paper I would like to propose that under certain interpretations there are additional forms of “apraxia of speech” which differ from the frontal speech apraxias. I would like to propose further that certain phonological functions as understood by linguists are “epiphenomena” and operate in parallel with the hierarchically organized sensory ...

Classification and diagnosis of apraxia
Zhurnal nevrologii i psikhiatrii im. S.S. Korsakova, 2015Apraxia is one of the most frequent clinical presentations of vascular, traumatic, infectious, tumor and neurodegenerative diseases of the brain. However neurologists have difficulties with diagnosis. The author presents a review of current classifications of apraxia and methods of its clinical diagnosis.

Abstract The motor system, which includes the corticospinal system together with motor neurons, is capable of directing muscles to make an almost infinite variety of movements. To perform skilled movements, the brain must acquire the knowledge through experience to program the motor system, so that these movements can be made correctly ...

Apraxia of gait- or apraxia of postural transitions?
Parkinsonism & Related Disorders, 2018"Apraxia of gait" is not a useful concept and freezing of gait should also not be considered an apraxia. The concept of apraxia may, however, be applied to distortions of postural transitions that can accompany fronto-parietal lesions.

John Hughlings Jackson1observed that certain aphasic patients could not protrude their tongues when requested to do so. They could, however, eat and drink well, and even lick their lips. While Jackson recognized the significance of this disturbance, he did not designate it by any name.
