Abstract:10 ganglia were studied by means of light and electrone microscope and with immunfluorescence methods. The light microscopic findings in the wall of a ganglion resemble on developing hygroma. The mesenchymal cells ultrastructurally show differentiation to synovia-like cells, either surrounding the ganglion in the connective tissue wall or lining the cavity. The development of synovial tissue from undifferentiated mesenchymal cells is due to the typical mechanical stimulus affecting joints.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
