What Causes Anomic Aphasia Post A Spinal Surgery?
I had back surgery in March of this year. Forth and fifth lumbar fused together. Since then I have noticed a marked decrease in my ability to recall word s in normal conversation. The operation was over three hours long. Could this have any thing to do with my problem?

Hello,
If symptoms persist, better to consult a neurologist and plan for an MRI brain to rule out possible intracranial (inside the brain) causes.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
