Abstract
⺠We report a patient showing isolated phonological agraphia after a stroke involving the left SMG. ⺠The left SMG represents an important anatomical substrate for phonological agraphia. ⺠TBS is able to influence many language functions, including phonological processes. ⺠TBS over the left SMG lead to a facilitation of phonological non-words writing to dictation. ⺠TMS may contribute to a better understanding the neurolinguistic mechanisms for writing.
