    Journal: Folia Morphol (Warsz); 2004 May; 63(2):185-8. PubMed ID: 15232774.
    Abstract:
    In foetuses of 9 and 10 weeks the articular disc presents a more cellular structure with bands of connective tissue fibres. It is connected with the articular capsule and lateral pterygoid muscle. During weeks 11 and 12 there is an increase in collagenous fibres and fusiform cells are located mainly close to the surface of the disc.
