Locus of lesion in impaired pantomime recognition.
This study was concerned with the relationship between intrahemispheric locus of lesion and defective pantomime recognition in a population of left hemisphere damaged aphasics. Defects in pantomime recognition appeared to result from lesions in basal ganglia and areas 40, 39, 37 and 22. At the same time, however, a significant minority of aphasics with lesions in these various loci did not show defects in pantomime recognition.
