title: [Motor speech disorder after removal of a glioblastoma in the left hemisphere: Cortical disorder or apraxia?].
abstract: A 38-year-old male patient with a deep central parietal lesion in the left hemisphere reveals a motor speech disorder but no aphasia as evidenced by linguistic testing with the Aachener Aphasietest. Nuclear magnetic resonance tomography of the brain shows no lesion of the brainstem. Whether the speech disorder can be termed cortical dysarthria or apraxia of speech is left open to discussion.
