41
Q

area 39

A

angular gyrus

42
Q

lesion to primary motor and premotor cortex

A

contralateral spastic paresis (region depends on area of homunculus affected ); premotor: apraxia

43
Q

lesion to frontal eye fields

A

eyes deviate to the ipsilateral side

44
Q

lesion to broca’s speech area

A

broca aphasia (expressive, nonfluent aphasia): patent can understand written and spoken language but speech and writing are slow and effortful; patient is aware of problem; also a/w right arm weakness and right lower face weakness

45
Q

lesion to prefrontal cortex

A

frontal lobe syndrome: symptoms can include poor judgment, difficulty concentrating, and problem solving, apathy and inappropriate social behavior

46
Q

lesion to primary somatosensory cortex

A

contralateral hemihypesthesia

47
Q

lesion to superior parietal lobule

A

contralateral astereogenesis/apraxia

48
Q

lesion to inferior parietal lobule (angular gyrus : area 39)

A

Gerstmann syndrome (if dominant hemisphere): right/left confusion, Alexia, dyscalculia,and dysgraphia, finger agnosia, contralateral hemianopia, or lower quandratonopia; unilateral neglect (non-dominant)

49
Q

lesion to primary auditory cortex

A

bilateral image –> deafness
or
unilateral leads to slight hearing loss

50
Q

lesion to wernicke’s area

A

Wernicke aphasia (receptive, fluent aphasia): patient cannot understand any form of language; speech is fast and fluent but not comprehensible

Sensory dysprosodia (R) dominant lobe

51
Q

lesion to hippocampus

A

bilateral lesions lead to inability to consolidate short term to long term memories

52

contralateral upper quadrantanopia

55
Q

lesion to primary visual cortex

A

cortical blindness if bilateral or macular sparing hemianopia
