We provide for the first time direct clinical evidence for the critical role of hemispheric integration in intact error processing. We tested three patients with partial callosal disconnection. Two anterior patients could not correct their errors in a unilateral version of a visuomotor learning task for which they previously exhibited callosal disconnection, whereas, they corrected most of their errors in two visual matching tasks (comparing abstract shapes or faces) that they could transfer between the hemispheres. An opposite pattern emerged in a posterior patient. He could not correct his errors in unilateral versions of the same visual matching tasks, for which he previously exhibited callosal disconnection. However, he corrected most of his errors in the visuomotor learning task he was able to transfer between the hemispheres.

D001921 Brain The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM. Encephalon
D001932 Brain Neoplasms Neoplasms of the intracranial components of the central nervous system, including the cerebral hemispheres, basal ganglia, hypothalamus, thalamus, brain stem, and cerebellum. Brain neoplasms are subdivided into primary (originating from brain tissue) and secondary (i.e., metastatic) forms. Primary neoplasms are subdivided into benign and malignant forms. In general, brain tumors may also be classified by age of onset, histologic type, or presenting location in the brain.

D002540 Cerebral Cortex The thin layer of GRAY MATTER on the surface of the CEREBRAL HEMISPHERES that develops from the TELENCEPHALON and folds into gyri and sulci. It reaches its highest development in humans and is responsible for intellectual faculties and higher mental functions.
