Apotemnophilia, body integrity identity disorder or xenomelia? Psychiatric and neurologic etiologies face each other
This review summarizes the available studies of a rare condition in which individuals seek
the amputation of a healthy limb or desire to be paraplegic. Since 1977, case reports and …

Contralesional motor deficits after unilateral stroke reflect hemisphere-specific control mechanisms
We have proposed a model of motor lateralization, in which the left and right hemispheres
are specialized for different aspects of motor control: the left hemisphere for predicting and …

Could brain–computer Interface be a new therapeutic approach for body integrity dysphoria?
Patients suffering from body integrity dysphoria (BID) desire to become disabled, arising
from a mismatch between the desired body and the physical body. We focus here on the …

An anatomical account of somatoparaphrenia
Somatoparaphrenia is a delusional belief whereby a patient feels that a paralyzed limb does
not belong to his body; the symptom is typically associated with unilateral neglect and most …

Arousal responses to noxious stimuli in somatoparaphrenia and anosognosia: clues to body awareness
A complex brain representation of our body allows us to monitor incoming sensory stimuli
and plan actions towards the external world. A critical element of such a complex …

The dynamic nature of the sense of ownership after brain injury. Clues from asomatognosia and somatoparaphrenia
D Romano, A Maravita - Neuropsychologia, 2019 - Elsevier
The sense of ownership is the feeling that a body part belongs to ourselves. Brain damage
may disrupt this feeling, leading to somatoparaphrenia (SP), ie, the delusion that one's limbs …

Phenomenology and neural correlates of implicit and emergent motor awareness in patients with anosognosia for hemiplegia
Anosognosia for hemiplegia (AH) is characterized by a lack of awareness of motor disorders
and appears associated with fronto-temporal-parietal damage. Neuropsychological …

Movements and body ownership: Evidence from the rubber hand illusion after mechanical limb immobilization
There is no consensus on whether, and to what extent, actions contribute to constructing
awareness of one's own body. Here we investigated at both physiological and behavioral …
