title: Growth of the perichondrium and the chondroepiphysis: experimental approach in the rat proximal tibial epiphysis.
abstract: In the present paper we study the participation of the perichondrium in chondroepiphysis development analyzing its in vitro growth pattern without the perichondrium. We also advance the descriptive morphological results. We have observed that the chondroepiphysis without perichondrium grew with an almost normal pattern. Most of the cells that participated in chondroepiphysis growth came from the lateral region of the growth plate.
