The aim is to explore the clinical and psychoacoustic features of disorders following bilateral cortical auditory lesions.
Investigated symptoms and auditory responses in two patients with bilateral cortical lesions.
Conducted psychoacoustic discrimination tasks to assess auditory processing.
Documented auditory behaviors and responses to sound recognition and matching.
Both patients exhibited symptoms ranging from cortical deafness to auditory agnosia, amusia, and word deafness.
Findings included absent middle latency evoked responses and acoustic errors in sound recognition.
Results suggest a spectrum of auditory processing disorders related to cortical involvement.
