No, for wernicke, it could be both

When it involves area 22 (the major form), it is in temporal lobe

sometimes it can also involve area 39, 40, which locate in parietal lobe. Kaplan is vague on this and I have to some study to find out this correct info.

Ok, for area 39, do not forget it is reponsible for the famous Gerstman syndrome.

Be clear on this, my fellows
