substantia propria of cornea in dogs

The lamellated connective tissue of the cornea between the Bowman and Descemet membranes. Every claim on this page comes from the Leumas anatomy graph and carries its source.

What the substantia propria of cornea is

The lamellated connective tissue of the cornea between the Bowman and Descemet membranes. The atlas records it as a organ at the organ scale in the dog.

Where the substantia propria of cornea is

It sits in the head, within the sensory system. 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 substantia propria of cornea connects to

The atlas records 13 typed relationships for it, across 6 kinds of connection. part of cornea and organ.

Supply and innervation

This dataset asserts no arterial supply, venous drainage or innervation for the substantia propria of cornea. 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

Also recorded as substantia propria, corneal stroma, stroma of cornea and substantia propria corneae. Searching any of those names reaches this page.
