ABSTRACT
Entre las consecuencias generadas por las cardiopatías congénitas se encuentran los trastornos cognitivos. A continuación se exponen los resultados de la intervención neuropsicológica en la paciente (MCGD de 9 años) con trastornos del desarrollo generados por una cardiopatía compleja de origen congénito. La niña presentaba dificultades a nivel de la organización de todas las funciones cerebrales superiores (lenguaje, praxias y gnosias). En vista de los resultados en las pruebas de evaluación, se diseñaron estrategias de intervención neuropsicológica integral y personalizada. Esto permitió en 5 años llevar a la paciente de un estado de escasa funcionalidad social, emocional, física y cognitiva, a otro de multifuncionalidad adecuada en todos los ámbitos...
Among the consequences generated by congenital heart disease are cognitive disorders. Here are the results of neuropsychological intervention in the patient (MCGD 9 years) with developmental disorders generated by a complex congenital heart disease. The child had difficulties at the level of the organization of all higher brain functions (language, praxis and gnosis). In view of the results of the evaluation tests were designed comprehensive neuropsychological intervention strategies and personalized.

This article summarizes the era from when Paul Broca had first introduced his aphasia case study and theory in 1861 to clinical-neuroanatomical approach which was widely known until early twentieth century. The article also comprises the cognitive-neuropsychological approach which appeared after the cognitive revolution in 1956. It investigated and compared the definition, classification method and the primary research object of aphasia in the perspectives of clinical-neuroanatomical approach and cognitive-neuropsychological approach. Each approach has its own advantages and disadvantages. Therefore, it is inappropriate to only support for a certain approach but better if two approaches are incorporated together and used effectively in certain situations. In order for the best research and treatment for the aphasic patients, clinical practitioners who prefer clinical-neuroanotomical approach and researchers who prefer cognitive-neuropsychological approach should participate together to incorporate the two approaches.
