Evening Republican, Volume 19, Number 56, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 8 March 1915 — Unprecedented Case. [ARTICLE]

Unprecedented Case.

An Elkhart physician reports an unprecedented case in local annals of medicine —the birth of a child with its brain on the outside of the skull and covered only with a thin membrane. The child is alive and apparently doing nicely. An operation will be performed in the near future whereby the skull will be opened and the brain put in its proper place.
