Özet: Communication deficits resulting from aphasia can negatively impact stroke survivors’ social life. It has been reported that patients with severe non-fluent aphasia are better at singing lyrics than speaking the same words. Based on lesion studies, it is generally proposed that the right hemisphere is dominant especially for melody production. We present a 28-year-old woman with non-fluent aphasia as the result of a left hemisphere ischemic stroke involving mainly the superior division of the middle cerebral artery, and classified as having Broca’s aphasia. She was taken into melodic intonation therapy with speech therapy. Singing is accessible and enjoyable for many people with aphasia and melodic intonation therapies may facilitate recovery in such non-fluent aphasic patients.
