1. These tests are capable of identifying conduction aphasia with relative accuracy. 2. Conduction aphasia is caused by damage to the arcuate fasciculus.3. Patients with conduction aphasia are typically aware of their errors. 4. However, chronic conduction aphasia is possible, without transformation to other aphasias. 5. Conduction aphasia is caused by damage to the parietal lobe of the brain.6. Conduction aphasia can also be seen in cases of cortical damage without subcortical extensions.7. However, conduction aphasia remains a controversial topic from the understanding of its neurologic foundations. 8. The Wernicke-Lichtheim-Geschwind disconnection hypothesis thus became the prevailing explanation for conduction aphasia . 9. Traumatic brain injury and tumors can also lead to localized lesions, with potential to cause conduction aphasia . 10. However, conduction aphasia is a mild aphasia, and conduction aphasics score highly on the WAB at baseline.
