Neurological stuttering-a clinical entity?

P T Quinn et al. J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry. 1977 Jul.

Abstract

Stuttering associated with neurological pathology in normal adult speakers is uncommon, has no consistent clinicopathological picture, and its significance is too easily dismissed. A case is reported showing that stuttering may be a presenting symptom of progressive neurological disease, and another case demonstrates that a speech disorder which is indistinguishable from common stuttering may follow cerebral follow injury in adulthood.
