Abstract

Abstract We report an ambidextrous patient with a right parieto-occipital subcortical haemorrhage who exhibited Gerstmann's syndrome, ideational apraxia, constructional apraxia, dressing apraxia, and left hemispatial neglect. Though Gerstmann's syndrome and ideational apraxia are generally caused by a left cerebral hemispheric lesion, we thought the right cerebral hemispheric lesion to be responsible for these symptoms. The features of the case provide important information regarding the laterality and localization of Gerstmann's syndrome and ideational apraxia, especially in this ambidextrous patient.
