All the patients showed fluent speech from the onset, and excellent repetition. However, they showed difficulty in word finding and impairment of language comprehension. We administerd all the patients Western Aphasia Battery, 50 words pointing tasks using line drawings selected from among common Japanese words for language training for aphasics, and Token test. Anatomical analysis was done on the basis of brain CT and/or MRI. The patients were devided into three groups on the basis of the impairment of comprehension of single words. One group had no impairment of comprehension of single words, another showed slight impairment and the other showed severe impairment. Each group had different lesion site. We concluded as followings:first, lesions in the Broadmann area 6 and 9 produce impairment in comprehension of single words and the lesion extended to anterior to Broca’s area worsen the impairment. Second, any lesions in the left frontal lobe can produce impairment of comprehension of complex sentences.}, pages = {13--25}, title = {前頭葉と言語理解についての研究 : 前頭葉損傷による流暢性失語の言語理解障害と病巣の関係}, volume = {110}, year = {1996} }
