Abstract

Acute experiments were carried out on cats by a stereotaxic method to identify the morphological formations stimulation of which leads to the development of acute prolapse of the brain. These formations were found to be the lateral hypothalamic area, the zona incerta, zones H1 and H2, the parafascicular, interstitial, and interpeduncular nuclei, and the nucleus of Darkshevich. In response to stimulation of the lateral hypothalamic area, zona incerta, and zones H1 and H2, besides the characteristic histological changes of acute prolapse, signs of edema and swelling of the brain also were found.
