Allochiria (from the Greek meaning "other hand") is associated to spatial transpositions, usually symmetrical, of stimuli from one side of the body (or of the space) to the opposite one. It is a neurological disorder in which the patient responds to stimuli presented to one side of their body as if the stimuli had been presented at the opposite side.
