Abstract
A case of patient with deep frontal brain haemorrhage is reported. The lesion is in the striato-caudate region extended to the anterior arm of the internal capsule. The neuropsychological survey is reported: it shows an impairment in functions implying the central processing while not so markedly spoiled are functions classically considered depending on the damaged areas. A SPECT investigation shows an extension of the functional impairment corresponding to the neuropsychological data.File in questo prodotto:
