Definition:any structural anomaly of the polyhedral cells located on the basilar membrane beneath the Claudius cells in the basal turn of the cochlea, and considered supporting cells for the organ of Corti; Boettcher cells interweave with each other, project microvilli into the intercellular space, show high levels of calmodulin, and may be involved in mediating Ca(2+) regulation and ion transport
Synonyms:exact_synonym: abnormal Bottcher cell morphology;   abnormal Bottcher's cell morphology
 related_synonym: abnormal Boettcher's cell morphology
