A Model for Dissociated Reading Processes

Marianne Regard, PhD; Theodor Landis, MD; Klaus Hess, MD

Arch Neurol. 1985;42(4):400-402.

Abstract
• A proficient stenographer who had had cerebral metastases suffered from pure alexia for normal print but could still read stenography with ease. It is suggested that especially the visuospatial properties of stenography made possible "alternative" reading, most likely via the right hemisphere.
