An appropriate surgical technique for the production of cerebral infarction must fulfill, among others, the following criteria in order to be suitable for electron microscopy (EM) studies: (1) the method of arterial occlusion should yield a high percentage of infarcts with predictable average size; (2) there must be avoidance of surgical manipulation (i.e., retraction) of the cerebral tissues or exposure of the same to the atmosphere; and (3) the method for occluding the artery must be one that permits fixation by perfusion of the ischemic and nonischemic brain. Modifications to a previously devised method for induction of cerebral infarct are herein described. This new surgical approach has made it possible to conduct detailed and sequential ultrastructural analysis of experimental cerebral infarctions.
