title: [Relations between the phagocytic activity of monocytes and the lateralization of brain injuries].
abstract: According to the authors' opinion, the different character of alterations in phagocytic activity of monocytes in primary derangement of the dominant and subdominant hemispheres results from the different functional significance of the hemispheres. The most pronounced neurogenous immune dysfunction occurs because of an injury to the dominant hemisphere. The two mechanisms of alterations in phagocytic activity of monocytes are of importance during the posttraumatic period in severe brain contusions: the central one related to neurogenous immune dysfunction and secondary one related to infectious complications.
