Scope note: Tipo de afasia fluyente caracterizada por un trastorno en la capacidad para repetir frases de una o dos palabras, a pesar de que se mantiene la comprensión. Esta afección se asocia con lesiones del hemisferio dominante en las que participa el fascículo arcuato (que es una proyección de sustancia blanca situada entre las áreas de Broca y Wernicke) y las estructuras adyacentes. Como los pacientes con AFASIA DE WERNICKE, los que tienen afasia de conducción tienen fluidez pero cometen errores parafásicos durante los intentos de comunicación en las formas oral y escrita.

Scope note: A type of fluent aphasia characterized by an impaired ability to repeat one and two word phrases, despite retained comprehension. This condition is associated with dominant hemisphere lesions involving the arcuate fasciculus (a white matter projection between Broca's and Wernicke's areas) and adjacent structures. Like patients with Wernicke aphasia (APHASIA, WERNICKE), patients with conduction aphasia are fluent but commit paraphasic errors during attempts at written and oral forms of communication. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p482; Brain & Bannister, Clinical Neurology, 7th ed, p142; Kandel et al., Principles of Neural Science, 3d ed, p848)
