Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura. Report of a case presenting as a chronic neurological disorder and characterized by unusual histological findings.

A case of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura in a 50-year-old woman is described. Almost the whole course of the disease, lasting 18 months, was characterized by a bizarre neurological disorder, and the haematological manifestations first appeared at a late stage. In many organs a vast number of arterioles and capillaries contained plugs of a fibrinoid material, and fibrinoid was subendothelially accumulated in a few of these vessels; but, in addition, mediumsized arteries of the myocardium were also obstructed by this same material. There were also verrucal endocardiosis of the mitral valve and slight thickening of the glomerular basement membranes. The striking diffusion of a pathological substance through damaged cerebral vessel walls into the nervous tissue seems to be a significant contribution to the understanding of the pathogenesis of the vascular pathology of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura.

Prosopagnosia.

"And what is the nature of this knowledge or recollection? I mean to ask, Whether a person, who having seen or heard or in any way perceived anything, knows not only that, but has a conception of something else which is the subject, not of the same but of some other kind of knowledge, may not be fairly said to recollect that of which he has the conception?""And when the recollection is derived from like things, then another consideration is sure to arise, which is, Whether the likeness in any degree falls short or not of that which is recollected?" "The Philosophy of Plato" Phaedo (the Jowett translation).
