Animal fluency in people with Parkinson's disease: Item‐based performance before and after deep brain stimulation surgery

Journal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract People with Parkinson disease (PD) after surgery for deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN‐DBS) often decline in animal fluency due to impairments in executive functions and/or language. Item‐based measures of animal fluency may shed light on the specific nature of this decline, and into the strategies used when ...

Abstract We identified in two awake surgery cases a postoperative double dissociation between phonological and graphemic output buffer deficits. Using lesion‐symptom mapping from ischaemic mini‐strokes and preoperative tractography, we demonstrated that the phonological (resp. graphemic) disorder fitted with ventral (resp.
