Cortical organization in adulthood is modified by neonatal infarct: a case study.

Abstract: These data suggest that bilateral neural reorganization can be induced by unilateral neonatal damage.

“…Other cases of unexpected postoperative deficits have also been attributed to progressive tumor infiltration into functional areas. 43 Furthermore, both intraoperative stimulation and functional imaging techniques have provided evidence for redistribution of functional neural networks in cases of stroke, 13,44,45 congenital malformations, 46,47 brain injury, 48 and tumor progression. 13,14,49 Not surprisingly, it has been hypothesized that brain infiltration by gliomas leads to reshaping or local reorganization of functional networks as well as neosynaptogenesis.…”

“…In the mature nervous system, synaptic plasticity in pre-existing pathways and the formation of new circuits through collateral sprouting of lesioned and unlesioned fibres are the principle components of post-lesional plasticity (Raineteau and Schwab, 2001). In the developing nervous system it is clear that there is much greater potential for plasticity, which may involve plasticity not only of the ipsi-lesional cerebral cortex but also of the contra-lesional cortex and of spinal cord networks (Benecke et al, 1991;Carr et al, 1993;Cao et al, 1994;Lewine et al, 1994;Maegaki et al, 1995;Terashima, 1995;Nirkko et al, 1997;O'Sullivan et al, 1998;Balbi et al, 2000;Eyre et al, 2000aEyre et al, , 2001aThickbroom et al, 2001;Staudt et al, 2004). Functional and anatomical evidence demonstrates that spontaneous plasticity can be modified by activity, as well as by specific experimental manipulations.…”

“…A single case report utilizing magnetoencephalography suggested reorganization in the somatosensory cortex, with increased ipsilateral representation after neonatal middle cerebral artery distribution infarction (16). Weiller, Chollet, and coworkers (17,18) have reported functional reorganization of the brain after striatocapsular infarction in adults that includes the activation of ipsilateral cortical regions.…”
