Abstract
Anomia is the most common sign observed in aphasic patients. However, patients showing only pure anomia, caused by brain lesions were rare. We report a case of an acute stroke patient with isolated pure anomia from the lesion of superior and middle temporal gyrus. We confirmed naming impairment with relatively intact comprehension, fluency and repetition through the Korean version Western Aphasia Battery. We speculate that the superior and middle temporal area should be associated with the ability of semantics to access the phonological lexicon.KeyWords:Left temporal lobe infarction, Acute pure anomia, Korean version Western Aphasia Battery
