ABSTRACT
A callosal disconnection syndrome results in the functional independence of each hemisphere caused by ACA infarction, head injury or callosal operation for epilepsy. Clinical features are characterized by left unilateral tactile anomia, left unilateral agraphia, left unilateral apraxia, difficulty in copying drawings, dyscalculia and alien hand syndrome. Taeumchowe-tang(太陰調胃湯) is used to treat Taeumin(太陰人) Wewansuhanpyohanbyung(胃脘受寒表寒病). A 47 year-old man, following callosal infarction, was detected on MRI with left agraphia, dyscalculia and alien hand syndrome, but no left ideomotor apraxia or left apraxia. He was treated with Taeumchowe-tang. Significant improvement of clinical symptoms was seen, so it is here reported.
Key words: Callosal disconnection syndrome, Taeumin(太陰人) Wewansuhanpyohanbyung(胃脘受寒表寒病), Taeumchowe-tang(太陰調胃湯)
