COCHLEAR DUCT
SACCULE & COCHLEA
SEMICIRCULAR DUCT
COCHLEAR DUCT
• Filled with endo lymph
• Blind – no opening
• Has 3 wall
1. Basillar memb. Separates
S.T. from S.M. & Lodges organ of corti

from S. M
SACCULE & UTRICLE
• Saccule – connects with utricle by
utriculo saccular duct
• Macula is the sensitive part
• Has vertical sensitive epithelium.
• Joins with cochlea by ductus reuniens.
• Utricle- has 5 opening for scc.
• Has macula- horizontal sensitive
epithelium on floor
• Both are responsible for balance in linear
and accelerative movement.
SCC DUCT
• 3 in no.
• Present In side the SCC.
• The ampulated end has sensitive neuro
epithelium for balance in rotational
movement – crista ampularies.
Dr. Tarun Kumar Dwibedi / 9438790500 / dr.tarun52@gmail.com / SJG AMC & H, KOPPAL
The 2 duct 1 from each utricle and saccule forms the endolymphatic duct, Which at
end dilated to form the endolymphatic SAC.
32. PHYSIOLOGY OF HEARING
• ORGAN OF CORTI IS THE FUNCTONAL UNIT OF HEARING, LODGED ON THE
BASILLAR MEMBRANE.
IT HAS
1. TUNNEL CORTI – GUARDED BY INNER AND OUTER RODS CELLS- FILLED WITH
CORTI LYMPH.
2. HAIR CELLS - 2 TYPEs of HAIR CELLS INNER & OUTER HAIR CELLS
3. TECTORIAL MEMBRANE – GELATANEOUS MATRIX WITH DELIGATE NERVE FIBRES
4. SUPPORTING CELLS - DIETER’S CELL & HENSEN CELL

33. • INNER HAIR CELL
• 1 rows
• ~ 3500 cells
• Flask shaped
• Supplied with afferent nerve fibers
• High resistant
• Carries the nerve impulse to the auditory nerve
• OUTER HAIR CELL
• 3-4 ROWS
• ~12000 cells
• Cylindrical shape
• Efferent nerve endings
• Less registrant
• Modulation of transduction

38. • BALANCE
FUNCTIONAL UNIT
1. CRISTA AMPULARIS – SCC.
2. MACULA OF UTRICLE AND SACCULE
CRISTAE
Crest like- mound shaped connective tissue– lodges sensory epithelial cells—cilia of sensory epithelium projects to
the cupula, a gelatinous mass movement of endo lymph causes movement of cilia.
MACULA ( UTRICLE & SACCULE)
SENSORI NEURO EPITHELIUM—TYPE I & II HAIR CELLS
OTOLITHIC MEMBRANE LODGES THE CRYSTALS OF CALCIUMCARBONATE– OTOLITH
The cilia of hair cells projects to the otolithic membrane and the crystals stimulates the hairs cells in response to
the change in plane .

40. • HAIR CELLS OF MACULA AND
CRISTA
TYPE I
Flask shaped
Has 1 thick and long kinocilia
Has many thin small stereocilia
Supplied with a single cup shaped nerve ending all base of the
