SEM of the inferior surface of the human tectorial membrane. a The tectorial membrane was ‘‘stripped’’ away from the acoustic crest and placed with its inferior surface facing upwards (left inset). The framed area is magnified (middle turn). The right inset shows Hensen’s stripe with radial fibers (asterisk) running from the marginal net. HS Hensen’s stripe, TM tectorial membrane. 55-year-old male. b Radial fiber (RF) bundles run along the inferior surface and merge with the HS and Kimura’s membrane (KM). MN marginal net
