The elastic tissue of the adult dilated ureter.
Adult dilated ureters have been examined in order to calculate the amount of the elastic tissue. From the histological observations and by the chemical analyses performed on the extracted elastin a decrease of the elastic tissue, as compared to the normal adult ureters has been noted. In fact, in the adult normal ureters, the elastin accounts for 9% of the dry matter, while in the abnormal the elastin represents 6.5%.
