Clinical and neuropsychological study of 28 patients with arteriovenous malformations (AVM) of the caudate nucleus and 36 patients with AVM of the thalamus has been conducted. After surgical removal of the caudate nucleus, speech disturbances developed in 4 out of 8 patients with left-side AVM and in 1 patient, a converted left-hander, with right-side AVM. All 5 patients had mild speech disturbances, which differed by character in dependence of the AVM location. In case of AVM location in the head of the caudate nucleus, the speech disturbances were represented by perseverations and were similar to those caused by the lesion in the Broca area. In case of the caudate nucleus lesion, naming was mildly affected that resembled temporal aphasia. After surgical removal of AVM in the left thalamus in 9 patients, complex and rather stable speech disturbances developed in 7 cases. They were featured by the signs of frontal and temporal aphasias, i.e. there were perseverations and disturbances of naming, auditory and speech memory. The peculiarities of speech disturbances in lesions of the caudate nucleus and the thalamus were well explained by their anatomic and functional correlations with different regions of brain speech cortex. Speech disturbances in various subcortical lesions are reviewed. In the authors' opinion, subcortical aphasias do not have any particular character but include the same factors in different combinations as cortical ones that is determined by the presence of common functional systems for speech support which comprise cortical and subcortical patterns.
