Abstract:
A simple technique is described for chronic or acute cannulation of the third ventricle in the rat slightly displacing the superior sagittal sinus to allow midline implantation of a vertically oriented cannula. The results of an experiment successfully employing the technique for transplantation of embryonic hypothalamic tissue in rats are briefly described.
