title: [Hemodynamic component in cerebral compensatory processes following unilateral exclusion of the somatosensory cortex].
abstract: In experiments on anesthetised and awake cats the dynamics of the cerebral blood flow was studied by the thermoelectric method in one hemisphere in experimental lesion of the somatosensory zone of the opposite one. Temporary exclusion of the cortical area by cold produced evident hemodynamic changes, i. e. a two-phase vasoreaction and an initial blood flow decrease followed by a prolonged increase of blood supply, in the other hemisphere. Analogous vasoreactions were seen on unilateral extirpation of the cortical layer of the somatosensory zone, as well. Such vasoreactions indicate enhanced activity of the cortical structures in the intact hemisphere and may be considered as a compensatory reaction to the local lesion of certain cortical areas.
