Crossed Aphasia in a Bilingual Dextral: A Case Report
Crossed aphasia in dextral refers to aphasia following a right hemispheric lesion in right-handed subjects. It is a rare diagnosis with a prevalence of less than 2%. We describe a rare case of a bilingual patient affected by global aphasia following a cerebral hemorrhage in the right hemisphere. This report hopes to raise more awareness of this rare phenomenon. Further research is warranted to understand the pathophysiology and prognosis of this condition.
