Abstract

We report a comparatively 'pure' case of 'foreign accent syndrome' (FAS) in a right-handed patient who sustained a small, isolated, left basal ganglia infarct. At 3 weeks post-onset FAS persisted in the absence of aphasic disorder. Phonetic analysis of the patient's speech was undertaken at that time and a further, more detailed acoustic and phonetic investigation, was undertaken at 8 months. The validity and significance of the term 'FAS' is discussed.
