I.はじめに
脳梁損傷による半球間連合障害は,視覚,聴覚,触覚等の認知,および行為の問題など多岐にわたつている。脳梁膨大部切断例にあつては,視覚認知の検討が最も重要であるが,それと共に聴覚,触覚認知の検討も脳梁機能研究に欠くことができない重要な課題である。
聴覚的認知の研究は,近年めざましいものがあり,純音による検査の他に特殊な語音検査の開発によつて,より高次の中枢障害の性状が明らかになりつつあるが,とくに両耳分離能検査〔Dichotic listening test (以下d.l.t.とす)〕は,脳梁切断例では興味ある研究手段といえる。
We made the neuropsychological auditory studies of two right-handed subjects who had undergone the transection of the splenium of the corpus cal-losum for the pineal operation (the teratoma by the histopathological examination). The transection grades were 2.0 cm and 2.5 cm. The truncus and splenium of the second subject were flat by the compression of the tumor.
We examined these subjects by the some audio-logical methods.
1. Pure tone audiometry.
2. Fixed frequency Bekesy audiometry.
3. SISI test (short increment sensitivity index test).
4. Speech audiometry.
5. Distorted speech test (filtered speech test).
6. Binaural fusion test.
7. Dichotic listening test,
The tasks used for the dichotic listening test were following. Different digits (one pair, three pairs), different words (from two to four syllables) and different vowels and consonants were presented simultaneously to the two ears by means of a dual-channel tape recorder with stereophonic earphone. The result shows that the first subject (whose section of the spelenium was 2.0 cm) shows a slight but not significant superiority on the right ear to the one pair digits and words (p<0.1), and the second subject (whose section of the splenium was 2.5 cm and whose splenium and truncus of the corpus callusum were flatten by the compression of the tumor) shows a significant superiority on the right ear to the one pair digits, words, three pairs digits and vowels (p<0.05). But there was no de-finitive abnormalities at the pure tone audiometry, the fixed frequency Bekesy audiometry, SISI test, distorted speech test and binaural fusion test of two cases.
The result shows that the commissure fibres of the auditory perception of the speech of two hemi-spheres connect through from splenium to the truncus of the corpus callosum.
