A Sixty-Eight-Year-Old Man with Aphasia and Somniloquy

Department of Neurology, Division of Rehabilitation, University of Maryland Medical Systems, 22 South Greene Street, Baltimore, Maryland 21201

A sixty-eight-year-old man with a left parietal-occipital infarct and associated mixed aphasia also has a history of a recurrent dream associated with somniloquy. During the somniloquy, his speech is prosodically fluent, syntactically well-formed, and semanti cally coherent. We observe, therefore, that somniloquy is another context in which an aphasic syndrome may temporarily resolve.
