Abstract
An investigation of functional alterations following temporal lobectomy for focal epilepsy leads to some considerations of auditory physiopathology. In some cases Heschl's gyri were sacrificed in the surgical removal, in other cases they were spared: a speech discrimination impairment of the same degree was found in both cases.Keywords
