Color "amnesia" without aphasia.
Following an apparent left parietal CVA, a patient developed a severe and nearly complete color amnesia which was not associated with any disturbance in color vision or color perception. Like all previously reported cases with color amnesia, this patient was alexic but, unlike most previously reported cases, he was not aphasic.
