Abstract
Histomorphological studies have revealed the exact orientation of smooth muscle fibers in the bladder wall. The distinct inner layer has circumferential, and the outer layer has longitudinal orientation. Three-dimensional structure analysis of the organ suggests smooth muscle fasciculi as functional units of the organ
There is something fascinating about science. One gets such wholesale returns of conjecture out of such a trifling investment of fact.
