When a Large Left Hemisphere Stroke is All Right for Language, Praxis, and Visual Attention

This case suggests that language, praxis, and visuospatial functions can simultaneously lateralize to the RH. Although previous cases report reciprocal hemispheric reorganization, such as in crossed aphasia, this case of "crossed non-aphasia" supports the view that lateralization of functions can occur independently. Clinically, this rare pattern of atypical lateralization should be considered when expected poststroke deficits are absent.
