| Core Tip |
Limited research on the effect of perinatal cerebral injury on the development of reading ability in childhood is available. Herein, we report the case of an 8-year-old boy presenting with reading difficulty (dyslexia) following perinatal injury in the parieto-temporal-occipital lobes. Despite occipital lobe injury, the patient had adequate visual acuity, normal eye movement, and no visual field defects. His verbal comprehension index on the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Fourth Edition and ability to adequately recognize Japanese Hiragana letters were adequate. However, he showed remarkably poor reading fluency and phonological awareness. Careful attention should be paid to patients with perinatal brain injury in the parietotemporal region. |
