MODEL OF LOCAL MECHANICAL DAMAGE TO CEREBRAL HEMISPHERES

摘要

The model of local mechanical damage to the cerebral hemispheres is the method of experimental neurosurgery. In male rats following the general anesthesia using a mixture of xylazine and ketamine, the opening is made with milling cutter at the specified site. Then the resection craniotomy is performed. Dura mater is dissected, and the precentral and postcentral gyri are examined under microscope. The cortex of the right hemisphere of the brain in a projection of motor zone is injured.
