Thirty-seven patients (27 with ischemic and 10 with hemorrhagic strokes) were examined. The patients were followed up for 1 to 5 years. Clinical and neuropsychologic examinations over time and computer-aided tomography of the brain were carried out. The syndrome of sensomotor aphasia was shown to be heterogeneous. Two variants of the syndrome were specified which differed by the clinical manifestations of aphasia, the time-course of recovery of various speech functions, and the localization of affection. The correlation between the recovery of individual speech functions and the cerebral blood supply is discussed.
