Grassets sign or phenomenon is of some value in hysterical simulationof partial organic hemiplegia or simulation by the malingerer. In full recumbency with arms crossed in front and legs separated (asshould be done in the Oppenheim-Babinski maneuver), the patient finds itimpossible to lift both lower extremities simultaneously though each may beraised separately. The trap for the simulator is obvious. Hoovers Sign.—This has essentially the same differential value as thepreceding maneuver. In the partial dorsally recumbent hemiplegic and the normal personalike, the attempt to raise one leg alone involves downward pressure by theopposite extremity in a degree proportional to its strength. 1198 MEDICAL DIAGNOSIS.
