Transcortical motor aphasia

 

Transcortical motor aphasia is a type of non-fluent aphasia like Broca’s aphasia. Speech output is reduced with frequent episodes of word-finding difficulties making speech halting with many starts and stops. Individuals with transcortical motor aphasia have preserved repetition, as they can repeat words and sentences of considerable length and complexity. The severity of this type of aphasia can range from mild to severe.
