Auditory agnosia refers to a disease in which the ability to perceive and recognize sound is abnormal when the hearing

cognitive and language ability（reading

writing and speaking） are intact. Auditory agnosia can affect not only all types of sound perception

but also a specific sound field. Auditory agnosia can be divided into general auditory agnosia

verbal auditory agnosia

apperceptive verbal auditory agnosia

associative verbal auditory agnosia

phonagnosia

agnosia for environmental sounds

amusia

and auditory affective agnosia in clinic. At present

there are few research reports on auditory agnosia

and the relevant diagnostic and treatment methods are still lacking

which is worthy of further research and attention in otology clinic.
