ACQUIRED DYSGRAPHIA WITH SELECTIVE DAMAGE TO THE GRAPHEMIC BUFFER - ASINGLE-CASE REPORT

We describe one patient with acquired dysgraphia who showed spelling e rrors (mainly deletions and substitutions), both for words and non-wor ds, across all output modalities (oral and written spelling, and delay ed copying). Spelling accuracy was not affected by lexical factors, bu t was a function of word length. The patient's performance in oral and written tasks suggests the hypothesis of selective damage to the Grap hemic Buffer.
