Abstract
The surface views of the stria vascularis and its adjacent areas are presented after a silver reaction, a glutamic dehydrogenase staining and a H-3-uridine autoradiography. Between the stria vascularis and the spiral prominence, as well as Reissner's membrane, some rows of spindle-formed cells were observed on the endolymphatic surface running parallel to the stria vascularis from the base to the apex of the cochlea. The H-3-uridine autoradiography of the endolymph administration revealed distinct labels of the stria vascularis and the spiral prominence. From these results, the resorptive function of the stria vascularis and the spiral prominence is discussed.
