Abstract

A topic of great interest in the problem of restoration of functions during compensation of cortical trauma [3] is the possibility of plastic restructuring of descending pathways from the undamaged hemisphere [2]. Research conducted by the microstimulation method into the reorganization of cortical motor zones after partial decortication [4, 6] has~ enabled discussion of the possible ways in which this restructuring can be brought about, but until the question of the temporal characteristics of evoked motor responses (MR) has been answered, no definite conclusion can be drawn regarding their mechanisms. Controlled experiments on intact animals of the same age (up to 1 year) also are necessary, because reorganization of the motor areas is revealed in the late stages after experimental trauma [4].
