Right unilateral dyscopia of letters in alexia without agraphia

Atsushi Yamadori, M. D.

From the Department of Neurology and Psychiatry, Kobe University School of Medicine, Kobe, Japan.

In two cases of pure alexia with computed tomography (CT) evidence of lesions in the left occipital lobe, the left hand copied letters normally, but the right hand copied defectively. The findings reinforce the disconnection theory of alexia without agraphia.

Address correspondence and reprint requests to Dr. Yamadori, Department of Neurology and Psychiatry, Kobe University School of Medicine, 12, Kusunoki-cho 7-chome, Ikutaku, Kobe, 650, Japan.

Accepted for publication December 11, 1979
