Abstract

Thirty-nine cases (37 from the literature and 2 personal) of crossed aphasia in dextrals due to stroke were reviewed concerning age, sex, and type of aphasia. Results showed that Broca's aphasics are younger than the remaining group, males predominate, and several types of aphasia have been described similarly to the aphasias due to left-hemisphere lesions in dextrals.
