At the beginning of 1898, at the very time when the question of noon was discussed in St. Petersburg not only by the medical press, but also by the general press, I came across a case that, in addition to the everyday interest associated with this issue, undoubtedly deserves attention and clinical attention. While a whole literature has already been formed about peripheral lead paralysis, diseases of the central nervous system and, in particular, of the spinal cord due to lead poisoning have been described by relatively few and only recently. All this prompts me to report my observation, despite the fact that he was destined to remain without posthumous research.
