title: A new elastic system component, 'elastic sheet' in the human dermis. An electron microscopic study.
abstract: We have studied a new component of the elastic fibre system in the human dermis, which we call 'elastic sheet', using scanning and transmission electron microscopy. The structure is long, broad and flat with some holes, and may be the base of the elastic fibre system from which elastic fibres originate.
