The postnatal development of complex convolutions (CCs) of the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (LGNd) in normal rats has been studied quantitatively with light microscopy. We report that immature neurons do not contain these scarcely understood organelles, since they can be seen for the first time in very few, mature neurons of the 30 day rat; their number constantly increases during the following 4 months. These cytoplasmic inclusions can be equally seen in the aged rat. CCs are present in neurons of all sizes, except the smallest, which correspond to the interneuron population. Although, morphologically, CCs of the LGNd of the rat are similar, but not identical, to the cytoplasmic multilaminated bodies of the cat, intermediate forms are described.
