title: A 42-year-old man with "pseudo-coprolalia".
abstract: A 42-year-old right-handed man presented with one week's history of uncharacteristic use of coarse language with associated anomia, inappropriate word usage and slowness of thoughts. Imaging demonstrated a solitary infarct involving the anterior left thalamus. Clinical and imaging findings and the current literature on anterior thalamic insult are discussed.
