This study presents a thorough analysis of published crossed aphasia (CA) cases, including for the first time the cases published in Japanese. The frequency of specific symptoms was determined, and symptomatology differences based on gender, familial sinistrality, and CA subtype were investigated. Results suggested that the CA population is comparable to the left-hemisphere patient population. However, male were significantly more likely than female CA subjects to show a positive history of… Expand

Incidence and Symptomatology of Vascular Crossed Aphasia in Bengali
  • D. Lahiri, S. Dubey, +4 authors A. Ardila
  • Medicine
  • Cognitive and behavioral neurology : official journal of the Society for Behavioral and Cognitive Neurology
  • 2019
TLDR
The relatively high incidence of CA in the Bengali language suggests that bi-hemispheric language representation may be more prevalent in Bengali speakers than in speakers of other languages. Expand
Crossed aphasia in a patient with congenital lesion in the right hemisphere
Background: Described over 100 years ago by Bramwell (1899) as an example of atypical cerebral dominance, crossed aphasia is a clinical condition where a lesion in the right hemisphere in a… Expand
A case report on crossed aphasia in dextrals
TLDR
There is no agreement about pathogenesis of CAD and neural mechanism is still unclear, but considering the clinical symptomatology, it can be argued that the patient observed a non-fluent aphasia. Expand
Crossed Aphasia and Visuo-Spatial Neglect Following a Right Thalamic Stroke: A Case Study and Review of the Literature
TLDR
This case-report is the first reliable representative of vascular CAD following an isolated lesion in the right thalamus and a detailed analysis of linguistic and cognitive impairments of ‘possible’ and 'reliable' subcortical CAD-cases published since 1975 is presented. Expand
Investigation of Speech and Language in a Persian Patient with Crossed Aphasia in Dextrals: A Case Report
Introduction: In the current study, we report a patient of crossed aphasia in dextrals (CAD) that presented with aphasia and typical neuropsychological deficits following right hemisphere brain… Expand
Crossed aphasia after right anterior temporal lobectomy. A case report
TLDR
The case of a 47-year-old right-handed patient with drug-resistant mesial temporal lobe epilepsy who developed a transitory aphasic syndrome after a right temporal anterior lobectomy is reported, and the role that epileptogenic zone could play in cortical reorganization of the language systems is discussed. Expand
Crossed aphasia following cerebral infarction in a right-handed patient with atypical cerebral language dominance
TLDR
The findings suggest that the patient has right-sided cerebral language dominance, or that both hemispheres have linguistic functions, and not all patients show linguistic capabilities on the side opposite hand preference. Expand
Nonfluent Crossed Aphasia after Right Middle Cerebral Artery Infarction-A case report-
TLDR
A 49-year-old right handed man with language disturbance after right middle cerebral infarction showed nonfluent crossed aphasia with Gerstman syndrome such as right-left disorientation, finger agnosia, acalculia and agraphia, but not with apraxia and neglect. Expand
Relationships between Aphasia and Apraxia
Aphasia and apraxia are two major neuropsychological syndromes that in most cases are caused by injuries in the left cerebral hemisphere. Clinical studies have revealed a double dissociation between… Expand
Bilateral representation of language: A critical review and analysis of some unusual cases
Abstract It is well known that for right-handed individuals, language is usually and mostly associated with the left hemisphere activity. The question of the potential bilateral representation of… Expand

Crossed aphasia is caused by a right-hemisphere lesion in a right-handed person. Although this unusual language lateralisation pattern is a defining characteristic, there is disagreement among… Expand
Crossed aphasias can be mirror image or anomalous. Case reports, review and hypothesis.
TLDR
Analysis of 34 cases from the literature with anatomical documentation of lesion site suggests that they represent at least two populations, and there may be general conclusions concerning mechanisms of cerebral lateralization to be learned from the investigation of anomalous groups such as crossed aphasics. Expand
Crossed aphasia: Analysis of four cases
TLDR
It is suggested that the prognosis and course of recovery in patients with crossed aphasia may in some cases be more related to the location and severity of the cerebral lesion than to the side of hemispheric involvement. Expand
[Crossed aphasia in right-handed patients. I. Review of the literature].
TLDR
It appears that none of the hypotheses put forward to explain crossed aphasic signs in dextrals can satisfactorily account for the occurrence of a right hemisphere aphasia in some dextral cases. Expand
[Crossed aphasia in a right-handed patient: a report on one case (author's transl)].
TLDR
This observation fulfills the criteria for defining the exceptional case of crossed aphasia in a right-handed patient: aphasic destruction of language engendered by a right unilateral lesion in such a patient, without a previous history of a cerebral lesion or family history of left-handedness.

Crossed Aphasia and Related Anomalies of Cerebral Organization: Case Reports and a Genetic Hypothesis
TLDR
The RS theory of cerebral dominance can account for this pattern of anomalies in right- handers and may account for the most common patterns of dominance observed in left-handers. Expand
Non-verbal disturbances in crossed aphasia
Abstract Aphasia is generally accompanied by signs of non-verbal dysfunction. The study of crossed aphasia can help to clarify the relationship between the two orders of phenomena. Four personal… Expand
Neuropsychological analysis of a case of crossed dysphasia verified at postmortem
TLDR
The possibility is discussed of a distinction between two types of crossed dysphasia with either dissociated or simultaneous language and visuospatial deficits due to reversed representation of hemispheric specific functions or transfer of most cognitive functions to the right hemisphere. Expand
Crossed aphasia: New perspectives
Abstract Crossed aphasia reflects an unusual latcralization pattern characterized by a dissociation between manual and language hemispheric dominance in a right-handed individual. In order to… Expand

TLDR
An extremely rare case of sensory aphasia due to a right hemispheric lesion in a 61-year-old, right-handed male is reported, and it is suggested that the right and left brain functions are reversed in this patient. Expand
