A case of mixed transcortical aphasia following drug overdose

International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 1986
ABSTRACTA case is presented of a 35‐year‐old, right‐handed man who exhibited a range of clinical features indicative of mixed transcortical aphasia subsequent to a heroin overdose. The findings of a comprehensive language evaluation, neurological assessment and neuroradiological examination are described and discussed.

The Efficacy of Collaborative Referencing Intervention in Chronic Aphasia: A Mixed-Methods Study

American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology, 2021
Purpose The feasibility of a collaborative referencing intervention (CRI) for adults with chronic aphasia has been documented in two descriptive case studies (Devanga, 2014; Hengst et al., 2010, 2008). The current Phase II mixed-methods treatment study replicates the CRI with four additional participants (using interpretive ...

Transcortical mixed aphasia in a case of thalamic glioblastoma

Aphasiology, 1994
Abstract We report a case of transcortical mixed aphasia associated with left thalamic glioblastoma. A 60-year-old right-handed woman was admitted to our hospital with speech disturbance and right hemiparesis. She was alert and well oriented. However, spontaneous speech was remarkably reduced, and object naming, word fluency, verbal comprehension ...

Akinetic mutism and mixed transcortical aphasia following left thalamo–mesencephalic infarction

Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 1999
A 54-year-old man developed somnolent akinetic mutism and acute mixed transcortical aphasia following a left thalamo-mesencephalic infarction. He also exhibited behavioural changes, namely apathy, slowness, lack of spontaneity, disinhibition, perseveration, gait apraxia and incontinence consistent with frontal lobe dysfunction.

Mixed Transcortical Aphasia: Repetition without Meaning

2015
Although mixed transcortical aphasia (MTA) is a rare syndrome, it constitutes an interesting case for modern neuroanatomically driven language models. This is because its existence may be seen as congruent with the assumption of an independently operating “dorsal stream” in language processing. Predicted by the earliest models of language processing in

Acute mixed transcortical aphasia following an infarction in the left putamen

Aphasiology, 1998
Abstract Mixed transcortical aphasia is an uncommon occurrence with acute stroke. A 62 year old female is described with mixed transcortical aphasia and right hemiparesis and occlusion of the left internal carotid artery. The CT scan of the brain showed an infarction in the left putamen indicating that there is more than one anatomic possibility ...

Behavioral and neoronal changes during treatment of mixed transcortical aphasia: A case study

Cognition, 1993
The development of language mechanisms outside the traditional language regions is evidenced by the case of K.S., a patient with chronic mixed transcortical aphasia, that is, good repetition performance compared to all other language abilities. The aphasia was caused by an infarction of the left a.

Acute mixed transcortical aphasia with bihemispheric neurological deficits following diffuse cerebral dysfunction

Aphasiology, 2000
A 78 year old man presented with acute mixed transcortical aphasia with intact naming and bilateral involvement of the motor systems following a left internal carotid artery stenosis. The CT scan showed hypodense areas in the border zones of the left hemisphere together with diffuse areas of ischaemia.

Advanced disconnectomic analyses reveal repetition pathways in a case of mixed transcortical aphasia [PDF]

Brain and Cognition
Mixed Transcortical Aphasia (MTA) is an infrequent aphasic syndrome, characterized by poor comprehension and production in oral language abilities and poor performance in written language abilities. However, individuals with MTA typically retain the ability to repeat.
