ABSTRACT

El tema de la rehabilitación de las afasias es explorado con frecuencia en la literatura de las últimas décadas, debido a que es una de las secuelas más comunes del daño cerebral y de las que más presenta variaciones dependiendo del caso, por lo cual los profesionales a cargo de los pacientes que sufren de esta condición se ven en la necesidad de buscar métodos eficaces para tratarlos. El objetivo de esta investigación es mostrar el diseño de un único caso con sintomatología de afasia de conducción y anomia pura. Se trata de un paciente masculino de 62 años de edad, con nivel académico de doctorado, diagnóstico de afasia de conducción y anomia a causa de un evento isquémico con 18 meses de evolución. Recibió tratamiento neuropsicológico en base a modelos histórico-culturales y neurocognitivos en dos periodos diferentes, una hora por semana. Se llevó a cabo una evaluación neuropsicológica antes y después del programa de rehabilitación, además se hizo uso de líneas bases en ambos periodos y se tomó en cuenta la perspectiva del paciente y su esposa. El rendimiento en la primera y segunda evaluación muestra un mejor desempeño en algunas áreas del lenguaje, mientras que en las líneas bases y en la apreciación del paciente y su esposa se observaron cambios importantes, concluyendo que el programa tuvo efectos favorables en la comunicación del paciente en el hogar.


The subject of aphasia rehabilitation is frequently explored in recent literature since it is one of the most common forms of brain damage and presents an assortment of variations depending on the specific case, making it so that professionals who are in charge of patients with this condition find themselves in need of effective treatment methods. This article aims to present the design for the single case study rehabilitation of a patient with conduction aphasia and pure anomia. The patient in question is a 62-year-old male with a P.h.D. level education, diagnosed with conduction aphasia and anomia caused by an ischemic event with an 18-month evolution, he received neuropsychological treatment following the historic-cultural and neurocognitive models, spanning two different treatment periods, one hour a week. A neuropsychological evaluation was made before and after the rehabilitation program, as well as using a baseline for both periods and taking into account the perspective of both the patient and his wife. Patient performance in the first and second evaluations shows improvement in some language areas, while the baselines, as well as the patient and his wife's assessment speak of important changes, concluding that the program had favorable effects on the patient's communication at home

ABSTRACT

Anomia is the most common sign observed in aphasic patients. However, patients showing only pure anomia, caused by brain lesions were rare. We report a case of an acute stroke patient with isolated pure anomia from the lesion of superior and middle temporal gyrus. We confirmed naming impairment with relatively intact comprehension, fluency and repetition through the Korean version Western Aphasia Battery. We speculate that the superior and middle temporal area should be associated with the ability of semantics to access the phonological lexicon.
