An infarction involving the left putamen, caudate nucleus and the anterior limb of the internal capsule, resulted in aphasia with semantic paraphasias, verbal incoherence and verbal memory impairment. Cerebral blood flow (CBF) studies with 133Xe inhalation at 20 days post onset showed, on one hand, a bilateral lowering of cortical blood flow and on the other hand a left frontal-parietal hypoperfusion area. Spontaneous recovery occurred within 2 months. While the mean CBF became normal at 14 months post onset, a relative hypoperfusion area persisted on the anterior left hemispheric cortex. On the basis of these findings and current CBF and metabolic studies carried out in patients with subcortical lesions, the authors discuss the role of cortical and subcortical structures in subcortical aphasic syndromes. The importance of reciprocal connections between cortex, striatum and thalamus is stressed.
