The brains of 22 ex-boxers were examined histologically to determine the frequency of recent or old haemorrhage. Four boxers had died from an acute intracerebral bleed, usually soon after a boxing bout. Seven of the other 18 showed evidence of previous perivascular haemorrhage, as detected by Perls'' ferrocyanide test for iron, and a similar number showed minor degrees of meningeal of subpial siderosis, consistent with previous meningeal bleeding; cerebral siderosis was present in six cases. Seventeen in the 22 boxers evidence of recent or past haemorrhage. Control material showed an incidence of 11% for perivascular iron deposition and only 4% for minor degrees of meningeal siderosis.
