一个病人是谁开发的面孔失认症与最近的枕颞梗死分布的右大脑后动脉。他没有地形失认症或物体失认症。他恢复了识别熟悉人面孔的能力，但他仍然无法识别疾病发作后遇到的人的面孔。这个案例表明，面容失认症可能是由于无法将感知到的面孔与面孔的记忆库进行匹配而发生的，并且无法识别不熟悉的面孔可能是由于无法形成新面孔的记忆库。这些缺陷可能与局限于右侧枕颞区的病变有关。
A patient is presented who developed prosopagnosia with a recent occipitotemporal infarct in the distribution of the right posterior cerebral artery. He did not have topographical agnosia or object agnosia. He regained the ability to recognize faces of familiar persons, whereas he remained unable to identify faces of persons whom he met after the disease onset. This case demonstrates that prosopagnosia may occur as a deficit of matching a perceived face to a memory store of the face, and that the failure to recognize unfamiliar faces may be due to the inability to form memory stores of new faces. These deficits can occur in association with a lesion confined to the right occipitotemporal region.
