A right-handed Japanese man with no personal or family history of left-handedness developed severe Wernicke's aphasia, a mild constructional disorder, and slight left hemiparesis. MRI revealed infarction in the territory of the righ middle cerebral artery, including areas homologous to Broca's and Wernicke's areas. The cerebral blood flow in these areas remained diminished even after language activation. The most likely explanation is that language production occurred in the left Broca's area, while language comprehension occurred in the right Wernicke's area (a dissociated aphasia).
