Histoarchitectonics of the fetal thymus. A three-dimensional model study.
Comparative studies on three-dimensional models give new possibilities in examination of the internal and external evolution of the thymus, phenomena that occur concomitantly with the histogenesis of the organ during the fetal life period. During the antenatal period, the invasion and burgeoning of capillaries represent a strong potential of biostimulation with a special role in organizing and determining thymus lobulation.
