"Mechanically, it's Jell-O," Freeman says, describing the tiny
tectorial membrane, which is thinner than a hair.
species such as presence of thick cuticle, hypoestomatic leaf (DEFAVERI et al., 2011; DONATO; MORRETES, 2009; ESPOSITO-POLESI et al., 2011; DIAS et al., 2012; SA et al., 2016), unicellular
tectorial trichomes, presence of trichome scars (DEFAVERI et al., 2011; DONATO; MORRETES, 2009; ESPOSITO-POLESI et al., 2011) and occurrence of epidermal cells of secretory structure surrounded by cells arranged in a radiated form (DEFAVERI et al., 2011; DONATO; MORRETES, 2009; DIAS et al., 2012; SA et al., 2016).
There are usually coexisting injuries to the skull base or craniocervical ligaments, most commonly the
tectorial membrane.
A diagnosis of
tectorial membrane injury associated with REH, venous perimedullary subrachnoid haemorrhage and compressive oedema of the ventral medulla was made.
(4) Bauer proposed that tinnitus is the result of reversible outer hair cell dysfunction and decoupling stereocilia from the
tectorial membrane.
MRI is especially critical in determining the integrity of the major ligamentous structures of craniocervical junction including the
tectorial membrane, occipitocervical joint capsules, alar ligaments, and transverse ligament [7, 18].
The cochleae were dissected out from the temporal bone, and the stria vascularis, Reissner's membrane, and
tectorial membrane were removed [32].
There was moderate diffuse cerebral edema and
tectorial bleed.
Ligaments stabilizing the atlantoaxial junction (C1-C2 joint), which are shown in Figure 1, include the
tectorial membrane, the cranial extension of the posterior longitudinal ligament that limits axial distraction; the alar ligaments, which transfix the dens to the occipital condyles to restrain rotational motion; and the transverse atlantal ligament (TAL), which restricts the dens from impacting the cord in flexion.
[2-4] With their interconnected endoplasmic reticular structure and the presence of numerous contractile proteins (e.g., nonpolymerized actin, alpha-active myosin, fibrin, and tubulin), these cells have the capacity to move the
tectorial and basilar membranes to a frequency of 30 kHz.
The vestibular membrane and
tectorial membrane were removed from the basal membrane.
