An Investigation of the Genesis of Lumbosacral Myeloschisis in the Chick Embryo
Abstract
dc:descriptionThe genesis of lumbosacral myeloschisis in chick embryos was investigated by a study of serial cross-sections of embryos in which lumbosacral myeloschisis had been induced by the removal of the vitelline membrane over the blastoderm at the 13-, 14-, 15- or 16-somite stages. Defective embryos were examined histologically at 3-hour intervals from the time of treatment to 30 hours of reincubation and thereafter at 12-hour intervals until 66 hours of reincubation had elapsed. Another group of embryos was reincubated after treatment until a total of 120 hours of incubation was reached.
