Prof. Mingazzini und dr. Polimanti. Über die physiologischen Folgen von succesiven Exstirpationen eines Stirn- loppens (regio praecruciata) und einer Kleinhirnhälfte. (Monatsschrift für Psychiatrie und Neurologie. 1906 November)

Before starting to clarify the results of their observations, the authors give a brief outline of various views on the motor functions of the frontal lobe. Ferrier ascribes to the frontal lobe a retarding effect on the motor centers. Goltz points out that after extirpation of the frontal lobe, exactly the same phenomena occur as after operations on the parietal lobes (movement disorders, visual, etc.).
