[Early recognition of hypoxic lesions in the cerebellum using Lie staining (HBFP staining)]

Using the Purkinje cells of the cerebellum from 42 rapidly and 28 slowly dying patients, we tried to find a correlation between the premortal hypoxie in brain and the result of HBFP staining. We found four different stages of staining and discuss here the causes of staining and false results.
