Gerstmann’s Syndrome and Limb Apraxia: A Single Case Study
This single case study supports previous neuropsychological evidence and neuroanatomical findings on healthy participants, suggesting a core neural network underlying the four GS symptoms, which involves the left superior parietal lobe, the intraparietal cortices and the white matter parietal and fronto-parietal tracts. Furthermore, the involvement of the three branches of the superior longitudinal fasciculus explains the co-occurrence of limb apraxia.
