  • Title: [Connections between the globus pallidus and putamen and the cerebral cortex].
    Author: Al'tova LS.
    Journal: Arkh Anat Gistol Embriol; 1978 May; 74(5):41-6. PubMed ID: 666582.
    Abstract:
    The results are represented on investigation of the projections of the globus pallidus and putamen on the brain cortical fields. In 17 cats a unilateral electrolytic destruction of the exterior and interior globus pallidus, and in 8 cats--unilateral electrolysis of the putamen were performed. The brains were treated after Nauta--Gygax, Fink--Heimer, Kawamura--Niimi. Direct connections between the external globus pallidus with prepiriformic, orbital (field 43), temporal (fields 20, 22), frontal (field 6), precentral (field 4), postcentral (field 2) cortical areas were revealed, and projections of the putamen on the frontal (field 6), precentral (field 4), postcentral (field 2), orbital (field 43) cortical areas were demonstrated. Less fibres connect the putamen with temporal and parietal areas. No convincing evidence was obtained to demonstrate direct connections of the entopedunctular nucleus with the brain cortex.
