    Area of Science:

    • Neuroscience
    • Speech-Language Pathology

    Background:

    • Acquired stuttering is a rare condition resulting from neurological damage.
    • Understanding its characteristics aids in diagnosis and treatment.

    Observation:

    • A 50-year-old male developed permanent dysfluency after a right hemisphere stroke.
    • Symptoms included frequent phoneme/syllable reiterations and loss of verbal automatisms.

    Findings:

    • The patient's dysfluency affected all word types and positions within sentences.
    • Symptoms align with the established acquired stuttering syndrome.

    Implications:

    • Highlights the role of the right hemisphere in speech fluency.
    • Informs differential diagnosis for stuttering in adult-onset neurological conditions.
