[Pure (dynamic ?) agraphia of frontal origin. Apropos of one case]

A case of pure graphic disorder without any disorder of speech, reading or praxis is described. The conditions under which it occurred after surgery for frontal oligodendroglioma would seem to confirm that a single frontal lesion is involve affecting in particular the foot of F2. This case is compared with similar ones which have appeared in the literature and are classified within the wider category of kinesthetic disorders caused by frontal lobe lesion.
