MeSH definition : A layer of stratified EPITHELIUM forming the endolymphatic border of the cochlear
duct at the lateral wall of the cochlea. Stria vascularis contains primarily three
cell types (marginal, intermediate, and basal), and capillaries. The marginal cells
directly facing the ENDOLYMPH are important in producing ion gradients and endochoclear
potential.;
