Another lesion that involves impairment in language production and processing is the “apraxia of speech”, a difficulty synchronizing articulators essential for speech production.[1] This lesion is located in the superior pre-central gyrus of the insula and is more likely to occur to patients with Broca’s aphasia.[2] Dominant ventral anterior (VA) nucleus, another type of lesion, is the result of word-finding and semantic paraphasia’s difficulties engaging in language processing.[2] Moreover, individuals with thalamic lesions experience difficulties linking semantic concepts with correct phonological representations in word production.[5]
