title: [Ultrastructure of the cellular patches of the arachnoid membrane of the human brain (concerning the origin of the arachnoid-endothelial cleavages of the cerebral dura mater). Electron microscopic study].
abstract: The ultrastructure of cellular spots was studied--growths of the external arachnoidendothelial layer of the arachnoid membrane of the human cerebral hemispheres. The peculiarities of their ultrastructure depending on the stage of their development were revealed. "Young", cellular spots were formed by accumulations of osmiophobic round-shaped cells that are lined from the outside by osmiophilic cells like the whole of the arachnoid membrane surface. "Mature" cellular spots contain great number of oxmiophobic (viable) cells located in a immediate proximity of the subdural space, and they form the main source of viable arachnoidenodthelial cells found in the subdural fluid. The author believes that these cells penetrate together with the subdural fluid flow into the dura mater where, under specific conditions, they may become a source of arachnoidendothelial chippings.
