成人获得性口吃可能是双侧或左半球损伤所致，男性比女性更常见，通常伴有失语症。右半球梗塞后，一个右撇子妇女口吃，但没有失语。她以前从未口吃过，但她的父亲和哥哥都患有发展性口吃。她和其他人的案例表明，语言侧化的性别差异可能导致左脑损伤后男性比女性更容易口吃，而右脑损伤后女性比男性更容易口吃。
Acquired stuttering in adults may follow bilateral or left hemisphere damage, is more common in men than in women, and is often associated with aphasia. After a right hemisphere infarct, a right-handed woman stuttered without aphasia. She had never stuttered previously, but her father and brother both had developmental stuttering. Her case and others suggest that sexual differences in language lateralization may render men more likely to stutter than women after left hemisphere lesions, whereas women are more likely to stutter than men after right hemisphere lesions.
