Abstract
In making an investigation of Huntington's Chorea in the State of Victoria, we have, so far, been able to collect 150 indisputable cases of this disease, and others. This figure includes 83 deceased, and 57 living. Out of a total of 74, who were certified to mental hospitals, 26 are still either in hospital or on trial leave. This represents ·34 per cent. of the total present mental hospital population. As regards sex distribution, our figures indicate that there were 68 females as compared with 72 males.
