A method is designed dividing the limbic system into sectors. The method was tested by analyzing 50 procedures carried out by the authors. Rostral limbotomies, performed either by open techniques (cingulectomy) or by stereotactic surgery, showed similar results, although recurrence was more frequent with stereotaxis. Comparison with other described procedures on the same areas revealed similar results. Analysis suggests that the interruption of the cingulum was responsible for the permanent behavior modification and not the interruption of intersecting anatomical systems.
设计了一种将边缘系统划分为多个区域的方法。通过分析作者实施的50例手术对该方法进行了测试。经开放技术（扣带回切除术）或立体定向手术进行的前额叶边缘脑白质切除术显示出相似的结果，尽管立体定向手术的复发更为频繁。与在相同区域所描述的其他手术方法进行比较，结果相似。分析表明，扣带束的中断导致了永久性的行为改变，而非交叉解剖系统的中断。
