Abstract
Broca's aphasia is a type of aphasia named after the French surgeon Broca. Broca's aphasic patients experienced difficulty in speaking, but they could understand both spoken and written language. There were three essential patients in the historical development of the study of Broca's aphasia. Louis Victor Leborgne (1809–1861) was also known as Monsieur Leborgne or 'Tan' as he could only utter the syllable 'Tan' throughout his 21 years of illness. The second patient was called Lazare Lelong. His language ability was slightly better than Leborgne. He could utter simple syllables, such as oui (yes), non (no), and this (trois or three). The third patient was Gage, a railway company worker. Broca studied similar cases in the following years and planned a brain function localization theory.
布洛卡失语症是一种以法国外科医生布洛卡命名的失语症。布洛卡失语症患者在说话方面有困难,但他们可以理解口语和书面语。在布洛卡失语症研究的历史发展中,有三个重要的病人。Louis Victor Leborgne(1809-1861)也被称为Leborgne先生或“Tan”,因为在他21年的疾病中,他只会说“Tan”这个音节。第二个病人叫拉扎尔·勒隆。他的语言能力略好于勒博涅。他能发出简单的音节,比如oui (yes), non (no)和this (trois或three)。第三个病人是盖奇,一个铁路公司的工人。布洛卡在接下来的几年里研究了类似的案例,并制定了脑功能定位理论。
