The cochlear ganglion in human embryos of developmental stages 18 and 19
Folia Morphol 1999;58(1):29-35.
Abstract
The cochlear ganglion was investigated in serially sectioned human embryos at developmental stages 18 and 19 (44-46 postovulatory days). During this period the cocchlear ganglion is separated from the vestibular ganglion, and it is adjacent to the cochlear duct. In embryos of investigated stages fibers of the cochlear ganglion enter the nuclei in the brain
