| Context |
Disruption to the pathway between Broca’s area (M) and the conceptual area (B) leads to the fourth condition, where there is impairment of volitional speech and writing with preserved understanding of speech and writing, repetition, writing to dictation and reading aloud. This condition is now recognized as transcortical motor aphasia. The fifth type predicted by Lichtheim’s model is what most people now call apraxia of speech, which results from damage to the pathway between ’M’ (Broca’s area) and ’m’ (the organs of speech).
