Abstract
Clinical findings and pathological examinations of 3 mental defective patients all showing etat marbre of the corpus striatum are described and well illustrated. The author discusses the findings in the light of divergent views concerning the etiology of this condition. He concludes that the vascular lesions set up by abnormal parturition have been inflicted mainly upon the venous side of the cerebral circulation, and that etat marbre of the corpus striatum and elsewhere is only one of the many possible sequelae of partial anoxia of the tissues conditioned by birth trauma.Keywords
