Abstract
- We report a patient with a left anterior cerebral artery (ACA) infarct showing representational neglect. Representational neglect is some form of neglect to areas of imagined space. We believe that the description of our case gives further information about neglect syndrome and the functional asymmetry of the cerebral hemispheres because these observations are rare.
