...Although significant axonal 542 sprouting has been demonstrated to occur at the site of deafferentation in the spinal cord, with increased 543 projections to brainstem nuclei, the changes observed in the somatosensory cortex are significantly 544 smaller (75, 76)....

...Moreover, the reorganization in higher order somatosensory centers such as the 545 secondary somatosensory cortex is even more restricted than in BA 3b (76)....
