Hensen stripe

[anna-anagnostop]

Please add:

abnormal Hensen stripe morphology DEF: any structural anomaly of the dark, nonstriated, V-shaped band (ridge) found on the underside of the tectorial membrane (TM) in the basal region of the cochlea, from which fine gelatinous trabeculae extend to fix the TM to the border cells, i.e. cells directly adjacent to the inner phalangeal cells; Hensen’s stripe is continuous with a more external homogeneous basal layer, from which a marginal band of an amorphous substance originates; the marginal net extends from the marginal band and attaches the lateral border of the TM to Hensen’s cells of the organ of Corti. Hensen’s stripe and the homogeneous basal layers display interruptions through which the fibrillar structure of the TM is visible SYN: abnormal Hensen’s stripe morphology From J:203482

absent Hensen stripe DEF: absence of the dark, nonstriated, V-shaped band (ridge) that is normally found on the underside of the tectorial membrane (TM) in the basal region of the cochlea, from which fine gelatinous trabeculae extend to fix the TM to the border cells, i.e. cells directly adjacent to the inner phalangeal cells SYN: absent Hensen’s stripe

Note: in J:192263, absent Hensen’s stripe is incorrectly annotated to "abnormal Hensen cell morphology [MP:0004303]"
