Abstract:
Histomorphological and histochemical aspects of the proximal cartilage of os penis and its surrounding perichondrium in 60 rats aged between 1 and 100 days are described. Comparisons at 11–14 days with the mandibular condylar cartilage reveal a slight difference in their general morphological composition. The developmental changes which take place in the os penis cartilage reveal histomorphologic events, some of which may be brought into agreement with previous observations of patterns of transformations of the bone. Observations on an age-dependent morphological appearance of the area adjacent to the proximal surface of the cartilage suggest certain agreements between the mandibular angular cartilage and the os penis cartilage. The study of phosphomonoesterases in the os penis cartilage and its perichondrium reveals significant, unexplained differences in the distribution of alkaline phosphatase between this cartilage and the mandibular condylar cartilage.
