Crossed aphasia (CA) is a type of aphasia caused by cerebral hemispheric lesions on the same side of the dominant hand. The prevalence of CA is extremely rare. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report in Korea to conduct 6 years of long-term speech therapy in a case of a patient with CA. The patient was a 57-year-old right-handed man with aphasia caused by extensive acute infarction in the right middle cerebral artery territory. He presented with global aphasia, right-left disorientation, and agraphia. Language function recovered in the first 6 months and then plateaued.
