Axial movements in ideomotor apraxia

K Poeck et al. J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry. 1982 Dec.

Abstract

Non-symbolic axial movements were examined and compared to oral and limb movements in a group of 60 aphasic patients (15 of each major subgroup) with exclusively left-sided brain damage. The contention in the literature that axial movements are preserved in patients with ideomotor limb apraxia was not confirmed.
