  • Optic Aphasia: a Case Study
    Journal of Clinical Neurology / Volume 2 / December, 2006 Case Report Optic Aphasia: A Case Study Miseon Kwon, Ph.D., Jae-Hong Lee, M.D. Department of Neurology, University of Ulsan College of Medicine, Asan Medical Center Optic aphasia is a rare syndrome in which patients are unable to name visually presented objects but have no difficulty in naming those objects on tactile or verbal presentation. We report a 79-year-old man who exhibited anomic aphasia after a left posterior cerebral artery territory infarction. His naming ability was intact on tactile and verbal semantic presentation. The results of the systematic assessment of visual processing of objects and letters indicated that he had optic aphasia with mixed features of visual associative agnosia. Interestingly, although he had difficulty reading Hanja (an ideogram), he could point to Hanja letters on verbal description of their meaning, suggesting that the processes of recognizing objects and Hanja share a common mechanism. J Clin Neurol 2(4):258-261, 2006 Key Words : Optic aphasia, Visual agnosia, Dyslexia INTRODUCTION CASE REPORT The disturbance of naming objects is a common K.D., a 79-year-old, hypertensive, right-handed man symptom in patients with brain damage. However, who had received 11 years of education, visited our naming deficits can be modality specific. Optic aphasia hospital for further management of the stroke that had is the inability to name objects only when they are experienced occurred 9 years previously. We could not presented in a visual mode - the patient can name obtain the medical records from the previous hospital, the objects on tactile or verbal presentation.

    2013 On Korea began in December 2006 with the initiation of KEI’s Academic Paper AC Series, a year-long program that provides an opportunity for both leading Korea scholars and new voices from around the world to speak and write on ADEMIC P current events and trends on the Korean Peninsula. Each year, KEI commissions approximately ten papers and distributes them individually to over 5,000 government officials, think tank experts, and scholars around the United States and the world. Authors are invited to the Korea Economic Institute of America to discuss their research before a Washington, DC policy audience. At the conclusion of each series, the papers are compiled APER SERIES and published together as the On Korea volume.
