Anomalesia
Definition
A rare sensory perception disorder characterized by a partial inability or congenital weakening of tactile and thermal sensitivity, often manifested through difficulties in correctly locating or differentiating physical stimuli applied to the skin. This structural deficit in innervation or central somatosensory processing is studied in clinical neurology in close connection with focal cortical lesions in the parietal lobe.
