Abstract: Development of superior colliculus in Human Fetuses aged from CRL 9.5 cm to 43.5 cm in length showed various stages of development. In fetuses of CRL 9.5 cm TD and APD are 2604 and 1624 micrometers respectively. In fetus CRL 43.5 cm TD and APD 4200 and 2100 micrometers respectively. The cell size is increased on average 4.88 micrometers at CRL 9.5 cm to 8.78 micrometers at CRL 43.5 cm.
There has been reduction in the number of cells from (9.5 cm CRL) from 11,880 to 4554 per mm2 cells. In 43.5 CRL the cell have been reduced in number from 3168 to 1980 per mm2 cells.
Keywords: Superior colliculus, morphogenesis, histogenesis and lamination.
