Further study of the surface morphology of the embryonic mouse cochlear sensory epithelia.
Histologic development of the mammalian cochlea has been studied by many investigators. In 1978, Li reported on a preliminary scanning electron microscopic study of hair cell development in the embryonic mouse cochlea. The present study further examines the surface morphology of the embryonic cochlea.
