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.

WIREs Cognitive Science, 2001
The term apraxia refers to ‘higher level’ disorders of motor control. Apraxia differs from other motor symptoms of unilateral brain damage by the bilaterality of symptoms following unilateral lesions. Lesions causing apraxia are located predominantly in the left hemisphere and apraxia is frequently, although not invariably, associated with aphasia ...

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

European Neurology, 1982
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 ...

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 ...

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.

Movement Disorders, 1998
AbstractFive cases of limb‐kinetic apraxia following primary degenerative cerebral pathology are reported. Apraxia appeared as the main symptom and was not concomitant to aphasia or to widespread cognitive impairments. Apraxia was not a consequence of elementary motor or sensory deficits, lack of coordination, or the result of the presence of rigid ...

Apraxias are deficits in higher motor behaviour that are not primarily caused by elementary deficits of the sensorimotor system, communication problems, or dementia. These patients present with deficits such as imitating meaningful or meaningless gestures and in dexterity or purposeful use of objects.
