A type of fluent aphasia characterized by an impaired ability to repeat one and two
word phrases, despite retained comprehension. This condition is associated with dominant
hemisphere lesions involving the arcuate fasciculus (a white matter projection between
Broca's and Wernicke's areas) and adjacent structures. Like patients with Wernicke
aphasia (APHASIA, WERNICKE), patients with conduction aphasia are fluent but commit
paraphasic errors during attempts at written and oral forms of communication. (From
Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p482; Brain & Bannister, Clinical Neurology,
7th ed, p142; Kandel et al., Principles of Neural Science, 3d ed, p848)
