  • Look Inside

1) The Brotherly cases of juvenile hepatocerebral degeneration have been described.

2) Case 1, a male, fell ill at age 23 with sub-sequent typical progress of pseudo-ulegyric typeand died 2 years and 9 months later. The chiefpathological findings consisted of cerebral degen-eration and fat liver, showing fair agreement withthe pseudo-ulegyric type. In addition, there wassoftening of the cerebral cortex of the orbital love,which has not yet been described. The compli-cation of central pontine myelinolysis and funicularmyelosis of spinal cord was also found.

3) Case 2, an elder brother of case 1, fell ill atage 16. Attacks due to disturbance of conscious-ness disappeared following 10 years' clinical coursecorresponding to Inose type. Since then the con-dition has remained unchanged with slight dementiaand left spastic paresis for 13 years. However,hyperammonemia has been proved even after thedisappearance of attacks.

4) Attention was focused on differences in clinicalcourse of brotherly cases of pseudo-ulegyric typehepatocerebral disease. Although the prognosis of this disease is generally believed to be unfavorable,the patient whose condition has remained unchangedfor a long time following the clinical course ofInose type deserves a special emphasis.
