From the Department of Neurology and the Laboratory of Neuropathology at Warren Anatomical Museum, Harvard Medical School, and the Department of Pathology, Children's Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts. "In the past eight, year…s, 4 cases of a peculiar degenerative disease process in the central nervous system of children have been reported in the English and American Literature. The disease process is characterized by the abnormal, strongly refringent, extracellular material deposited in the ground substance of the white matter, but present also in the gray matter and showing particularly dense accumulations around the blood vessels and under the pia throughout the neuraxis. The chemical nature and the origin of the abnormal substance are unknown and the pathogenesis of the disease is not yet understood. As is usual in the case of a new affection hitherto unobserved or unrecognized, the titles under which this affection has been reported reflect the authors' perplexity how to define precisely the disease process." Wohlwill, et al. Johann Friedrich Wohlwill (1881-1958) was a German neurologist, serologist and pathologist. Paul Ivan Yakovlev (1894-1983) was a Russian-American neuroanatomist who worked at Harvard Medical School. He is the namesake of the Yakovlevian torque, an asymmetry of human brains. He made contributions in the "origins of the frontopontine tract in humans, neurocutaneous syndromes and epilepsy, neuronal substrates and epilepsy, schizencephaly, arhinencephalia, mental retardation, decussation of the bulbar pyramidal tract, frontal lobotomies, the limbic cortex, the time of myelination and the anatomy of the limbic cortex, corpus callosum, and thalamus, and two classic anatomical atlases.".

From the Department of Neuropathology and the Warren Anatomical Museum, Harvard Medical School, Boston. "The history of Sturge-Weber's disease is an interesting example of the gradual gain of knowledge of an affection by a slow pr…ocess of accretion of new data upon the already known facts. In 1860 Rudolf Schinner made what appears to be the earliest report of a case of 'port wine' facial nevus with hydrophthalmos and glaucoma in which the vascular anomaly of the skin was correlated with varicosities of the retina in the homolateral eye-ball. It was on April 18, 1879 that W. Allen Sturge presented before the Clinical Society of London a 6 1/2 year old girl who suffered from sensory motor seizures ushered in by twitchings of the left side of the body, and who had a 'port wine mark' involving the right side of the head and face, right, shoulder, and upper thorax. The ideas of Hughlings Jackson on the 'middle level' fits and the notion of localizatory significance (then still largely inferential) of the sensory motor auras were then barely a decade old and must have been exciting for the professional contemporaries. Accordingly, Sturge argued that, in his case the fits were due "to some cause external to the nerve tissue rather than to the inherent instability of gray matter, and this external cause is in all probability to be found in the presence of a 'port wine mark' on the surface of the right side of the brain just as we have found it in the skin, mucous membrane, and retina of that side". Short, of autopsy verification, Sturge's argument rested there. On November 10, 1897 Kalischer (13) presented before the Medical Society of Berlin the brain of a year old child who since the age of 6 months had seizures beginning with twitching of the right side of the mouth, gradually spreading over the entire right side of the body, and eventually involving the left side also. The child had a telangiectatic nevus involving the left side of the forehead and face to the midline. On clinical grounds Kalischer inferred also that there must be an intracranial angioma involving the lower part of the motor region in the left, hemisphere. The autopsy showed an extensive angioma racemosum involving not only the skin, but the cranial bones and soft meninges covering the left hemisphere in the region of distribution of the middle cerebral artery and overlying mainly the foot of the precentral gyrus. ."
