A clinicopathological report on “M. Leborgne” by Paul Broca in 1861 is known as a monumentalarticle which encouraged studies on the cerebral localization of language. Here I report the clinicalcourse of M. Leborgne with a language disorder in which Broca asked Auburtin, one of his colleaguesin the society of anthropology in Paris, to discuss the cerebral localization of his language disorder. The patient died five days later and the autopsy was obtained.
