The brain was described grossly as normal: but microscopically there was marked superficial gliosis in all areas examined and considerable cell loss in suprastellate layers of precentral cortex. The calcarine sections show little or no cell-loss. This shows little cell-loss except in the layer of medium-sized pyramids. Always of a retiring and shy disposition.
