This evidence is based on the established features of the disorder supplemented by observations from the protocols of fifty autopsies performed during the past twenty-five years at the Children's Hospital in Boston. The pathology of mongolism has been extensively studied by Brousseau and Brainerd,1a Benda1b and many others.2 These investigations show no anatomic system to escape from at least occasional anomalous development.
