Abstract
The thickness of the fibrous lamina was assessed in the nuclei of cells adjacent to tears in semilunar cartilages and in cells from relatively normal uninjured parts of semilunar cartilages. Comparisons of mean thickness of the lamina showed a statistically significant thickening of the lamina at the site of injury. Evidently, the fibrous lamina is not a static structure of fixed dimensions for a given cell type, but a dynamic structure whose thickness varies as a result of altered physiological or pathological states.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
