The salivary-gland enlargement, which has previously been described, was unlikely to be mumps, even though she had been a contact, as the clinical course was dissimilar. Since 1943 endocranial calcification has been noted in some of these patients, and fits, thought to be associated with it, occurred in two cases. The calcification appears to be in the temporal lobes, even in Ramos e Silva's (1943) case. Our patient had bilateral calcification in the temporal lobes, probably medial to
