  • Title: A Golgi and electron microscopic study of a dysplastic gangliocytoma of the cerebellum.
    Author: Ferrer I, Isamat F, Acebes J.
    Journal: Acta Neuropathol; 1979 Jul 13; 47(2):163-5. PubMed ID: 474077.
    Abstract:
    The fine structure of a dysplastic gangliocytoma of the cerebellum is studied by means of the Golgi method and electron microscopic examination. Thick proximally unbranched dendrites with terminal arborizations and varicose inflorescences in the form of a basket are stained with the Golgi method. Axons are always descendant to the inner myelinated layer of the redistributed cerebellar cortex, while ascendant collaterals are observed at the level of the outer myelinated layer. Clear and dense-core vesicles and synapses are common in the cellular profiles under electron microscopic examination. From these data and because of the lack of putative connections through the white matter, an organized, self-regulated, catecholamine-mediated complex may be postulated.
