Alexia with agraphia.
The authors presented a case of relatively pure syndrome of alexia with agraphia in a patient speaking Serbo-Croatian language. Reading disturbances showed some characteristics of a deep dyslexia. Besides severely impaired reading and writing abilities, some components of Gerstamnn's syndrome were also present. Infarction in the posterior half of the left supramarginal and in the anterior half of the left angular gyrus was accurately located by the graphic reconstruction of CT scans.
