[Connections between the frontal and parietal areas of the cerebral cortex and the caudate nucleus in the cat].
In 10 cats with aseptically extirpated frontal and parietal areas of the brain cortex, efferent connections of the areas in question with the nucleus caudatus were experimentally studied by means of morphological methods. The preparations were stained according the methods of Nauta, Knuck, Finck-Haimer, and Kawamura-Niimi. The results of the investigations performed demonstrate a perfect topically organized caudal projection of the "associative" cortical areas. The frontal area is projected on the oral ventro-medial parts of the nucleus caudatus head, while the parietal area--on the central and lateral parts at the medial and more caudal levels.
