Sec, VIII, 1915, 70. atypical cases have been described, some of which have undoubtedly been atrophy of the retina secondary to sclero- sis of the choroidal vessels, and not primary degeneration of the rods and cones. The presence of bone corpuscle- shaped patches of pigment in the retina is not pathog- nomonic of primary retinitis pigmentosa. Such patches.
