[Fibrinolytic activity of the human brain and the cerebrospinal fluid]

The fibrinolytic activity (F.A.) of the encephalon, the cerebrospinal fluid and the choroid plexi has been studied in 15 necropsies observed at the Pavia Forensic Medicine Department. A physiopathological relationship between the F.A. of CSF and the encephalic structures is suggested; against this, there would appear to be no such relationship with the F.A. of the choroid plexi.
