Medical condition From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Abarognosis is a type of cortical sensory defect[2] consisting of a loss of barognosis, the ability to detect the weight of an object held in the hand or to tell the difference in weight between two objects,[3] or more succinctly "loss of the ability to sense weight".[4] This deficit may be caused by damage to the parietal lobe.[5]
