Excerpt from The Practical Medicine Series, Vol. 10: Comprising Ten Volumes on the Year's Progress in Medicine and Surgery, Under the General Editorial Charge of Gustavus P. Head, M. D. Professor of Laryngology and Rhinology, Chicago Post-Graduate Medical School, Nervous and Mental Diseases This second case of Gordon's was that of a young man of 23 years of age, with a cicatrix on the right parietal region, showing pronounced mental hebetude and somno lence. The left knee-jerk was exaggerated, and the para doxie re ex was obtained with the greatest facility. Ba binski's toe-sign, Oppenheim's re ex, and ankle-clonus were all absent. An operation by Da Costa restored the patient to health, and in six weeks the paradoxic re ex, looked for by Gordon, was found wanting, as was also the increased knee-jerk. Gordon believes that his early con elusion is warranted, and it is here repeated: The para doxie re ex is a sign of value in -the beginning of an organic affection of the motor system or in cases of irrita tion. While the Babinski sign is of inestimable value in cases with a definitely established lesion of the motor sys tem, the paradoxic re ex, to say the least, is a Sign of transient irritation or of a sligh't lesion of the same motor pathway.
