“…The overlap has been previously commented on by a number of authors, e.g. Oppenheimer and Newcombe (1978): 'in nearly all cases of word deafness, there is also a severe or mild non-verbal agnosia as well'.…”

This review considers reports of patients with disordered complex sound processing. This represents the processing of sound patterns in the spectral, temporal, intensity or spatial domain. Disordered processing of stimuli with particular acoustic structures may be manifest at a higher level as an apparent cognitive deficit, such as word deafness, amusia or environmental sound agnosia. The specific disorder will depend on the domain affected, and the region of that domain.

“…A lesion responsible for auditory agnosia is considered to be due to damage to bilateral temporal cortices, including primary auditory cortex on bilateral transverse gyri of Heschl [7][8][9], auditory radiation On March 31, brain MRI revealed slight atrophy of the temporal lobes and an incidental lipoma in the quadrigeminal cistern contacting the midbrain (a). On May 31, atrophy of the temporal lobes and cerebellum was observed (b).…”

“…We therefore eliminated our third criterion, thereby broadening our search and adding another 27 cases of auditory agnosia (Albert and Bear, 1957;Baddeley and Wilson, 1993;Buchtel and Stewart, 1989;Chocholle et al, 1975;Clarke et al, 2000;Engelien et al, 1995;Fujii et al, 1990;Fung et al, 2000;Gazzaniga et al, 1974;Godefroy et al, 1995;Goldstein et al, 1975;Jerger et al, 1972;Kazui et al, 1990;Lambert et al, 1989;Metz-Lutz and Dahl, 1984;Motomura et al, 1986;Nové-Josserand et al, 1998;Oppenheimer and Newcombe, 1978;Reinhold, 1950;Roberts et al, 1987;Saffran et al, 1976;Spreen et al, 1965;Takahashi et al, 1992;von Stockert, 1982;Wohlfart et al, 1952). These cases included patients who had verbal auditory agnosia but could still speak; these patients are analogous to HJA, the aforementioned visual agnosic who could draw flowers.…”

This special issue of Cortex focuses on the relative contribution of different neural networks to memory and the interaction of 'core' memory processes with other cognitive processes. In this article, we examine both. Specifically, we identify cognitive processes other than encoding and retrieval that are thought to be involved in memory; we then examine the consequences of damage to brain regions that support these processes. This approach forces a consideration of the roles of brain regions outside of the frontal, medialtemporal, and diencephalic regions that form a central part of neurobiological theories of memory. Certain kinds of damage to visual cortex or lateral temporal cortex produced impairments of visual imagery or semantic memory; these patterns of impairment are associated with a unique pattern of amnesia that was distinctly different from the pattern associated with medial-temporal trauma. On the other hand, damage to language regions, auditory cortex, or parietal cortex produced impairments of language, auditory imagery, or spatial imagery; however, these impairments were not associated with amnesia. Therefore, a full model of autobiographical memory must consider cognitive processes that are not generally considered 'core processes,' as well as the brain regions upon which these processes depend.
