Abstract
Liver biopsy specimens from six patients with Huntington's chorea were examined locally and referred with clinical information to three colleagues abroad experienced in the interpretation of liver biopsy specimens. The minor and inconsistent abnormalities reported upon were of non-specific character. The suggested interrelation between damage to cerebral neurones and hepatocytes in Huntington's chorea was not substantiated by this study.
