Description

Excerpt from The Alienist and Neurologist, Vol. 4: A Quarterly Journal of Scientific, Clinical and Forensic Psychiatry and Neurology; Intended Especially to Subserve the Wants of the General Practitioner of Medecine These cases, no doubt, are rare; for it seldom happens that bilateral local cerebral lesions are of sufficient extent, and so situated, as to cause well-marked, symmetrical, and nearly equal, secondary sclerosis descending on each side. Ere this can occur certain strands of fibres passing from the pyramids of the oblong medulla through the crura cerebri and internal capsule - or their upward continuations, apparently must suffer symmetrically from decisive lesion. Where this bilateral form of the atrophy and sclerosis chiefly and severely affects the pons Varolii and medulla oblongata, but also the cord in some degree (although here the change is more diffuse), it appears, judging by the case related below, that a group of symptoms arises which is distinct from the symptom-group attending primary or idiopathic lateral sclerosis of the cord, as described by Dr. W. H. Erb and others, and also from the symptoms attending ordinary paraplegia, as well as -from those found in locomotor ataxy.
