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]
