Abstract
The prevalence of Huntington's Chorea in Northamptonshire in 1967-1968 is compared with its prevalence in 1954-1955. Failure to diagnose, tardy diagnosis, misdiagnosis, dispersal, inaccurate family histories, unsuitable record systems, and inadequate help with contraception for affected families combine to perpetuate the illness.Keywords
