Abstract

Apraxia of speech (AOS) is a motor speech disorder often resulting from neurological damage, such as stroke, characterized by impaired planning and coordination of speech movements. This case report describes a 58-year-old male stroke survivor presenting with severe AOS. We applied a novel multimodal treatment combining traditional speech therapy with non-invasive brain stimulation (transcranial direct current stimulation, tDCS). Significant improvements in speech intelligibility and articulatory accuracy were observed after eight weeks of intervention. This report highlights the potential benefits of integrating neuromodulator with conventional therapy to enhance speech recovery in adult AOS patients.
