    The number of neurons in the spiral ganglion is estimated to be about 35,000–50,000. [1] Two apparent subtypes of spiral ganglion cells exist. Type I spiral ganglion cells comprise the vast majority of spiral ganglion cells (90–95% in cats and 88% in humans [2]), and exclusively innervate the inner hair cells. They are myelinated, bipolar ...
