Nerve sheath.<\/p>\n

Thin tissue sheath enclosing certain nerve fibers.<\/p>\n

The outer sheath, formed of Schwann cells, which covers the myelin sheath around a nerve fibre.<\/p>\n

The sheath of the axon of a nerve fiber. The neurilemma of a medullated fiber contains myelin laid down by Schwann cells.<\/p>\n
