1. Limb apraxia.
2. Oral apraxia.
3. Apraxic agraphia.
4. Constructional
apraxia.
Limb apraxia:
Movement of the wrong part of the
limb.
Incorrect movement of the correct
part.
Correct movements but in the
incorrect sequence
3 types of lesion limb
apraxia
Callosal apraxia apraxia of the left
limb, caused by damage to the anterior
corpus callosum.
A similar form of apraxia of the left limb
caused by damage to the anterior left
hemisphere (sympathetic apraxia).
Left parietal apraxia caused by lesions of
the posterior left hemisphere (involve
both limbs)
Constructional apraxia
Caused by lesions of the right
hemisphere (particularly the
right parietal lobe) trouble
drawing pictures or assembling
objects from elements such as
toy building blocks (inability to
perceive and imagine
geometrical relations)
Basal ganglia
Important component of the system
Caudate
nucleus.
Basal ganglia
Putamen.
Globus pallidus. input output
1. Parkinson’s disease:
Poverty of movement.
1. Huntington’s disease:
Uncontrollable movements, especially
jerky limb movements
Cerebellum.
Another important part of
the motor system.
When damaged movements
become jerky, erratic
uncoordinated (ataxia =
errors in range, rate & force)
