Development of the human prepuce and its innervation [PDF]
Differentiation, 2020 Development of the human prepuce was studied over the course of 9-17 weeks of gestation in 30 specimens. Scanning electron microscopy revealed subtle surface features that were associated with preputial development, namely the appearance of epidermal ...
