Agnosia

Agnosia is a term in medicine that refers to a condition in which a person develops inability to interpret sensations. Such a patient even becomes unable to recognize things.

Though the term is derived from the German word agnosia which simply means 'ignorance', this condition is typically a result of brain damage.
