Liver biopsy specimens from six patients with Huntington's chorea were examined locally and referred with clinical information to three colleagues abroad experienced in the interpretation of liver biopsy specimens. The minor and inconsistent abnormalities reported upon were of non-specific character. The suggested interrelation between damage to cerebral neurones and hepatocytes in Huntington's chorea was not substantiated by this study.
对6例亨廷顿舞蹈症患者的肝脏活检标本进行了本地检查，并将临床信息一同提交给了三位在解读肝脏活检标本方面经验丰富的国外同行。所报告的轻微且不一致的异常具有非特异性。本研究未证实亨廷顿舞蹈症中脑神经元损伤与肝细胞损伤之间存在所推测的相互关系。
