"Late" recovery of the right ear dichotic score following cerebrovascular accident: a case report.
Late recovery of the right ear score on a digit dichotic listening test was observed in a 45-yr-old female patient. The right ear score was at chance levels of accuracy through the ninth month post-onset of a cerebrovascular accident and then improved dramatically to 67% correct by month 12. Possible bases for this pattern of performance are discussed.
