초록
Gerstmann syndrome is characterized by agraphia, acalculia, finger agnosia, and right-left disorientation and is often caused by stroke, tumor, and Alzheimer’s disease. Damage to the parietal lobe in the dominant hemisphere is responsible for the syndrome. Gerstmann syndrome produced by lesions other than the angular gyrus lesion is rare. We report a case of Gerstmann syndrome caused by a subcortical parietal infarct of the left hemisphere on brain MRI.
