    Journal: Arkh Anat Gistol Embriol; 1989 Nov; 97(11):38-44. PubMed ID: 2631639.
    Abstract:
    Embryonal development of the spinal column cervical part has been studied in 100 series of sagittal, transversal, frontal sections; time of the main structural elements anlagen (vertebral bodies, arches, joints, ligaments) is noted. The prenatal development of the spinal column cervical part is divided into 3 stages--mesenchymal, cartilagenous, osseous. The first stage lasts up to 16 days of development; during this period anlagen of vertebral bodies, arches, joints, ligaments are formed. The second stage--cartilagenous; mesenchyma is substituted for cartilagenous tissue, cartilagenous cells are differentiated. This stage lasts from the 16th up to the 18th day of embryogenesis. The third stage--osseous--lasts from the 18th up to the 21st day of embryogenesis. During this period structures of the spinal column cervical part acquire a definitive form, the cartilagenous tissue is substituted for the osseous one.
