[Broca's aphasia and apraxia of speech (author's transl)]. 1982

Y Lebrun

The paper shows that the aphasic syndrome originally described by Paul Broca corresponds to what is now called anarthria or apraxia of speech rather than to the nosological entity which nowadays goes by the name of Broca's aphasia. The paper further endeavours to demonstrate that the output difficulties of anarthric patients are different from those of patients with Broca's aphasia, and it suggests a number of criteria to discriminate between anarthria and Broca's aphasia (Acta neurol belg., 1982, 82, 80-90).

D001037	Aphasia	A cognitive disorder marked by an impaired ability to comprehend or express language in its written or spoken form. This condition is caused by diseases which affect the language areas of the dominant hemisphere. Clinical features are used to classify the various subtypes of this condition. General categories include receptive, expressive, and mixed forms of aphasia.

D001039	Aphasia, Broca	An aphasia characterized by impairment of expressive LANGUAGE (speech, writing, signs) and relative preservation of receptive language abilities (i.e., comprehension). This condition is caused by lesions of the motor association cortex in the FRONTAL LOBE (BROCA AREA and adjacent cortical and white matter regions).

D001072	Apraxias	A group of cognitive disorders characterized by the inability to perform previously learned skills that cannot be attributed to deficits of motor or sensory function. The two major subtypes of this condition are ideomotor (see APRAXIA, IDEOMOTOR) and ideational apraxia, which refers to loss of the ability to mentally formulate the processes involved with performing an action. For example, dressing apraxia may result from an inability to mentally formulate the act of placing clothes on the body. Apraxias are generally associated with lesions of the dominant PARIETAL LOBE and supramarginal gyrus.
