Key Clinical Message We present a case of a single left hemisphere temporal–parietal stroke with subacute global aphasia and severe verbal apraxia and moderate dysphagia. The patient underwent a combined transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) over the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) and language stimulation with Virtual Reality Rehabilitation System (VRRS). Patient was treated in a 1‐h session, for 5 days a week, for 4 consecutive weeks. After treatment, evident improvements in the comprehension of oral and written language, swallowing abilities, and caregiver burden were detected. Power spectrum analysis of EEG data revealed significant enhancements of θ, α, and β waves from baseline to follow‐up. These preliminary results seem to confirm the reliability of the tDCS translational application in conjunction with computer‐based cognitive treatment for language disorders in a patient with stroke‐induced aphasia. |
