saccule of membranous labyrinth in dogs
The smaller of the two otolith organs in the vestibule. Every claim on this page comes from the Leumas anatomy graph and carries its source.
What the saccule of membranous labyrinth is
The smaller of the two otolith organs in the vestibule. The atlas records it as a organ at the organ scale in the dog.
Where the saccule of membranous labyrinth is
It sits in the head, within the nervous and sensory systems. Not positioned individually, and containment is not asserted either. Drawn near structures of the same kind, which is a weak claim about location.
What the saccule of membranous labyrinth connects to
The atlas records 6 typed relationships for it, across 4 kinds of connection. a kind of otolith organ.
Supply and innervation
This dataset asserts no arterial supply, venous drainage or innervation for the saccule of membranous labyrinth. Only a minority of structures carry those edges here, so an empty answer means nothing has been recorded — not that there is nothing to record.
Also called
