Looking through the stories of patients who passed through our hands in 1906 in a difficult department of the Kazan District Hospital, we drew attention to a rather rare case of idiocy, which, unfortunately, we had to observe for a very short time, why its study was of a general nature, and there is much in the clinical picture seemed unclear. However, we had to perform an autopsy on this patient and, examining his brain, we hoped to find the key to understanding those phenomena that seemed incomprehensible during his lifetime.
