  • Title: [The structural bases of the compensatory potentials of the central nervous system in closed craniocerebral trauma].
    Author: Kasumova SIu.
    Journal: Zh Vopr Neirokhir Im N N Burdenko; 1992; (1):17-9. PubMed ID: 1316696.
    Abstract:
    The article analyses 160 cases of fatal craniocerebral trauma encountered in the practice of the Burdenko Research Institute, AMS USSR, in 1980-1989. The results of the author's personal research and the literature data bear evidence of the different means of restoration of the functions of the central nervous system in localized and diffuse axonal brain damage. Reparative processes in the neurons of the pericontusion zone may provide compensatory changes. Compensation of disturbed functions of the central nervous system in diffuse axonal trauma is determined to a certain extent by the regenerative possibilities of partly damaged axons.
