neurilemma Anat.|njʊərɪˈlɛmə|
Also neurilema |njʊəraɪˈliːmə|, -elema; (sense c) neurolemma.
[Orig. f. Gr. νεῦρ-ον nerve + εἴληµα covering, involucrum; subsequently taken as f. Gr. λέµµα husk, skin (correctly reformed neurolemma). Cf. F. névrilème (Bichat, 1801).]
a. The delicate membranous outer sheath which invests and protects a nerve (now usually called epineurium).
b. The sheath of a nerve-funiculus, the perineurium.
Senses a, b are now rare or Obs.

I. 11 The nerve-stems and the bundles of which they consist, are surrounded with coats of conjunctive tissue, called neurilema.

1852Dana Crust. ii. 1333 The nerves..are flat, fibrous cords, enclosed within a membranous envelope or neurolemma. 1874A. E. J. Barker tr. Frey's Histol. & Histochem. of Man 307 The existence of an envelope on the nervous tube [sc. fibre] is easily inferred... This neurilemma may be seen not infrequently as [etc.]. Ibid. 317 The nerves of the brain and spinal cord..become clothed with a delicate envelope at their exit from the nervous centres. This covering receives another addition from the dura mater of connective-tissue bundles in its passage through the latter, and..constitutes what was formerly known as ‘neurilemma’, but which we will designate from henceforth ‘perineurium’. 1890Gray's Anat. (ed. 12) 42 The tubular sheath of the funiculi, called the neurilemma or perineurium. 1892E. A. Schäfer Essent. Histol. (ed. 3) xviii. 83 Outside the medullary sheath is a delicate but tough homogeneous membrane, the primitive sheath or nucleated sheath of Schwann... The primitive sheath is also known as the neurolemma. 1930Maximow & Bloom Text-bk. Histol. xii. 251 Some European writers, like Cajal, apply the term ‘neurilemma’ to the epineurium and not to the sheath of Schwann of the individual fibers. 1966Wright & Symmers Systemic Path. II. xxxiv. 1252/1 Neurolemmomas arise from the cells of the neurolemma, or nerve sheath. It is believed that the cell of origin is the Schwann cell. 1968Bloom & Fawcett Textbk. Histol. (ed. 9) xii. 321/1 The myelin is actually part of the Schwann cell, consisting of spirally wrapped layers of its surface membrane... The outer membrane..and the protein-polysaccharide boundary layer on its outer aspect were resolved with the light microscope as a single layer, which has traditionally been called the neurilemma.
