Case of Tumour of the Right Temporosphenoidal Lobe Bearing on the Localisation of the Sense of Smell and on the Interpretation of a Particular Variety of Epilepsy

For nearly all of the. notes of the case we are indebted to Dr. Hull. There is nothing very noteworthy in her family history, nor, until this illness, in her personal history. She said that she had had a polypus removed from the uterus some years ago. The first thing in her present illness, about thirteen months before admission, was the occurrence of epileptic fits. As these attacks were very odd, independent accounts of them were obtained by Dr. Beevor, Dr. Hull and. Dr. Hughlings Jackson; there was no essential variation, if indeed any, in the several accounts.
