Aphasia Sensory Subcortical

Sensory-subcortical aphasia is a speech disorder that occurs as a result of damage to the sensory part of the cerebral cortex, located in the subcortical region. This condition can also be caused by damage to the fibers that connect the cerebral cortex to underlying structures such as the basal ganglia and cerebellum.

Symptoms of sensory-subcortical aphasia may include difficulty understanding speech, difficulty pronouncing words and phrases, problems using gestures and facial expressions to express thoughts and emotions, and problems with reading and writing.

Treatment for sensory-subcortical aphasia usually involves the use of speech and language therapies, as well as techniques aimed at improving speech understanding and pronunciation. In some cases, surgery may be required to repair damaged fibers.

Sensory-subcortical aphasia is a serious language disorder that can have serious consequences in a person's daily life. However, thanks to modern treatments, many patients can achieve significant improvements in their speech and communication.
