“tache mongoloide”或“tache bleue mongolique”，被称为“蒙古斑”，通常发生在黄棕色人种新生婴儿的骶骨区域。蓝点出现在出生后的最初几天，形状可能是圆形或椭圆形，直径从几毫米到超过5厘米不等。蓝色的颜色因种族而异：据报道，日本人是深蓝色;中国人是石板灰色;波利尼西亚人是黑灰色;南美洲的印第安混血儿是绿灰色;欧洲的深色儿童是浅蓝色。随着孩子的发育，它的颜色变浅，到7岁或8岁时，它就消失了。1934年3月，在前往巴格达途中途经巴黎时，特罗卡德罗博物馆馆长P.里韦博士建议，应该在伊拉克寻找“蒙古病点”，因为在埃及和印度之间的地区没有任何记录，无论是阳性还是阴性。Dr. D. A. D.肯尼迪是巴格达皇家医院的产科医生，她被要求检查新生儿是否出现“蒙古斑”。肯尼迪医生在4月初提请注意第一个病例，并不时记录其他病例，因此，现在有确凿的证据表明伊拉克发生了“斑点”。但没有提供百分比。
The ‘‘tache mongoloide” or ‘‘tache bleue mongolique,’’referred to as the “mongoloid spot,” generally occurs in the sacral region of newborn babies of the Yellow-Brown races. The blue spot appears during the first few days after birth, may be either round or oval in shape and ranges in diameter from a few millimeters to more than 5 cm. The bluish color varies according to racial groups: it is reported as deep blue among the Japanese; slate gray among the Chinese; blackish gray among the Polynesians; greenish gray among the Indian mestizos of South America; and among European brunet children pale blue. It grows lighter in color as the child develops and by the age of 7 or 8 it disappears. In March, 1934, while passing through Paris en route to Baghdad, Dr. P. Rivet, Curator at the Trocadero Museum, suggested that search for “mongoloid spots” should be made in Iraq since no records, either positive or negative, were available from the area lying between Egypt and India. Dr. D. A. D. Kennedy, obstetrician at the Royal Hospital, Baghdad, was requested to examine newborn babies for the occurrence of the “mongoloid spot.” Doctor Kennedy called attention to the first case early in April and from time to time other cases were recorded, so that there is now a positive evidence of the incidence of the “spot” in Iraq. No percentages, however, are available.
