crura of the antihelix
Pilares de hélix might just be an error, with the intended meaning being "antehélix" (see Discussion box).

Charles Davis
: These terms correspond to the "base del hélix" (more usually "rama") which is mentioned separately, so I don't think it can be this.

pillars/rods of Corti
www.theodora.com/anatomy/the_internal_ear_or_labyrinth.html
The more central of these structures are **two rows of rod-like bodies, the inner and outer rods or pillars of Corti.** The bases of the rods are supported on the basilar membrane, those of the inner row at some distance from those of the outer; the two rows incline toward each other and, coming into contact above, enclose between them and the basilar membrane a triangular tunnel, the tunnel of Corti.
https://www.britannica.com/science/organ-of-Corti
Viewed in cross section, the most striking feature of the organ of Corti is the arch, or tunnel, of Corti, formed by **two rows of pillar cells, or rods.** The pillar cells furnish the major support of this structure. They separate a single row of larger, pear-shaped inner hair cells from three or more rows of smaller, cylindrical outer hair cells. The inner hair cells are supported and enclosed by the inner phalangeal cells, which rest on the thin outer portion, called the tympanic lip, of the spiral limbus.
