Abstract

The aim of the study was to clarify the question whether the fornix has an organic connection with myeloarchitectonics of the corpus callosum. In the course of study epoxy thin sections and paraffin sections of median whole mounts of corpus callosum (with the pellucid septum and formations of the fornix) of 10 men aged 36 to 60 years were examined. It was determined that at the boundary between the trunk of the corpus callosum and its splenium, that is, in its isthmus, there is a structurally fixed commutation interconnection between the conducting system of the limbic brain and commissural fibers of neopallium.
