Surgical techniques for the serial sampling of cerebrospinal fluid and for electrocorticography in cattle. 1978

R M Barlow, and R C Dow, and P Harris, and B Mitchell, and H R Townsend

During the investigation of a familial neurological disease of cattle with some similarities to human epilepsy serial sampling of lateral ventricular and cisternal cerebrospinal fluid and of electrocortical activity was undertaken. In this paper the surgical approach, the technical problems encountered and some solutions are discussed. Further possibilities for the development and application of the technique are indicated.
