The gross and microscopic structure of the auditory meatus of the harp seal (Pagophilus groenlandicus) is described from dissections and serial sections. The meatus bends ventrally from the oval external orifice, posteroventrally, ventrally, and finally medially into the cranium. The ventrally directed wall of the meatus is membranous, the posteroventral and ventrally directed wall is incompletely wrapped by cartilage, and the medially directed wall is bony. The areas between sections of the cartilaginous wall ate completed by connective tissue. The meatus is closed internally by the intrinsic helicis and antitragicus auricular muscles. The external orifice is closed by the superficial auricular muscles. The auditory meatus is lined with stratified squamous epithelium, sebaceous glands, and ceruminous glands. Longitudinal blood sinuses and elastic fibers in the hypodermis may function as a pressure regulating device during diving. Blood sinuses are most prominent in the bony region of the meatus and extend into the tympanic sulcus of the pars tensa. Blood sinuses engorged with blood and a closed meatus may enhance transmission of sound to the tympanic membrane when the seal is under water.

Abstract Osseointegrated dental implants are inserted into the alveolar ridge, and for them to function as tooth replacements, the surrounding tissues need to adapt to them. Just as with teeth, dental implants traverse the oral mucosa and have access to the contaminated environment of the oral cavity. Therefore, periodontal and peri-implant tissues are important for establishing a protective barrier. The aim of the present study was to perform a histologic analysis of the mucosa surrounding osseointegrated implant cover screws. For this study, 17 mucosal specimens were obtained from 12 patients during the second surgical session for implant exposure to the oral environment. After histologic preparation, specimens were sectioned perpendicularly to the mucosal surface to a thickness of about 3 µm, stained with 1% toluidine blue, and examined under light microscopy. All specimens showed a keratinized, stratified, squamous epithelium with well-defined strata. In the lamina propria, unorganized dense connective tissue was noted in the reticular layer, and in 4 samples, a chronic inflammatory infiltrate was seen in this region. The papillary layer presented tall connective papillae consisting of loose connective tissue. The results of this study confirm the hypothesis that the mucosa that conceals osseointegrated implant cover screws has the same morphologic characteristics as the alveolar masticatory mucosa. Furthermore, clinical conditions of normality in peri-implant tissues may not coincide with situations of histologic normality.

Anal Sacs

The anal and perianal region contains multiple structure and glands, some of which are unique to the area. Anal sacs or perianal sinuses are paired, lateral, cutaneous, anal diverticula lined by a cornified, stratified squamous epithelium. Dogs have apocrine tubular anal sac glands that open into the anal sacs. Perianal glands are modified sebaceous glands, they are referred as hepatoid glands, because of their histologic resemblance to hepatocytes. Incidence,symptoms and surgical and medical management of anal tumors was studied.

A specimen of the red mullet (Mullus surmuletus L.), caught in Plymouth waters in October 1949, was found to have tumours projecting externally on the pectoral fins. They were spherical or elliptical in shape, the largest being 20 mm. long. On the suggestion of Mr G. A. Steven some of these outgrowths were cut out and given to the writer for microscopic examination.When examined fresh they appear to consist of small, spherical, cyst-like bodies of various diameters, but there was no obvious clue as to their nature. After fixing in Bouin and sectioning, they are seen to be composed of cells of various sizes (PI. I, figs. 1–4). It can be seen that these cells lie close to one another, leaving only a little space for the embedding connective tissue which is characterized by the abundance of its own small cells. The blood vessels met with in this tissue contain fish erythrocytes. The whole is covered by stratified squamous epithelium (PI. I, fig. 2).

Gingival Graft

Background. Oral fibromas are benign, asymptomatic, smooth surfaced, firm structured tumoral lesions that originate from gingival connective tissue or periodontal ligament. Histologically, they are nodular masses characterized by a dense connective tissue, surrounded by stratified squamous epithelium.Case Report. This case report includes the clinical, radiographical, and histological findings and periodontal treatment of a 38-year-old female patient having painless swelling on the gingiva. Intraoral examination revealed a fibrotic, sessile, smooth surfaced gingival overgrowth interdentally between the teeth #13 and #14. Radiographical findings were normal. Initial periodontal treatment (IPT) was applied including oral hygiene instructions, scaling, and root planing. Following IPT, the lesion (0.7 × 0.6 × 0.4 cm) was excised and examined histopathologically. Subsequently, flap operation was performed to have an access to alveolar bone. Surgical site was reconstructed with free gingival graft obtained from hard palate. Hematoxylin-eosin stained sections revealed a nodular mass composed by dense collagen fibers in lamina propria covered by a stratified squamous epithelium, which were consistent with fibroma. Gingival healing was uneventful and without any recurrence during the 12-month follow-up.Conclusions. In order to achieve optimal functional and aesthetical outcomes, free gingival graft can be used for the reconstruction of the wound site after the excision of the fibroma.

Stratified Squamous Epithelium

It is well established that in the developing chick the underlying mesenchyme initiates the appearance of specific epidermal derivatives, e.g. feathers (Sengel, 1956), claws (Cairns & Saunders, 1954), and the preen gland (Gomot, 1958). On the other hand, it is not yet known to what extent the epidermis is independent of mesenchymal intervention for its basic differentiation into a stratified, squamous epithelium. Sobel's (1958) work on the 8-day chick pituitary suggests that the differentiation and multiplication of certain epithelial cells cannot proceed in the absence of mesenchymal elements. She found that the isolated epithelial cells of the hypophysial rudiment survived but were unable to differentiate or multiply; when associated with perichondrial fibroblasts, however, they resumed mitosis and produced typical α and β cells. In the first part of the present investigation, experiments were made to see whether the embryonic epidermis, like the hypophysial epithelium, requires the resence of fibroblasts to enable it to grow and differentiate, or whether it can proliferate, acquire its characteristic squamous structure and keratinize, when isolated and cultivated in the absence of connective tissue.

AbstractThe study was conducted on 36 developing reticulum from healthy and normal embryos/ foeti of Indian goat. Embryos/foeti were assigned into three groups. Histo-differentiation of reticulum of goat stomach took place at 38 days of gestation. The wall of foetal reticulum was made up of three strata i. e. epithelium, pleuripotent blastemic tissue and serosa up to 49 days of fetal age and definite four layers viz. epithelium, propria-submucosa, tunica muscularis and serosa were observed first at 51 days of gestation. Upto 100 days of gestation the reticulum was lined by undifferentiated stratified epithelium and thereafter gradually transformed into stratified squamous epithelium. Keratinization was noticed at term. Primary and secondary reticular crests made their appearance at 60 and 112 days of gestation, respectively. Corial papillae were detected in primary and secondary reticular crests at 121 and 145 days of gestation, respectively. Near term, the core of the reticular crest also contained muscularis mucosae in its proximal 1/3rd region while core of the corial papillae contained only lamina propria. Reticular, collagen and elastic fibers came into sight at 46, 100 and 134 days of gestation, respectively.Summary statementThe study was conducted on intrauterine reticulum of Indian goat. From this study it can be concluded that the histogenesis of reticulum was almost completed in prenatal life. However, to become functional it still required more time as the relative sizes of reticulum and process of keratinization were yet to be completed.

ABSTRACT Epidermoid cyst occurring within the tongue is rare. A 5-year- old male child was brought to outpatient department (OPD) with a tongue mass which was gradually increasing in size. There was associated difficulty in speech and mastication as the swelling increased in size. Intraoral examination revealed moderately tender, fluctuant and enlarged tongue. A diagnosis of dermoid cyst was made and the patient was booked for surgery. Excision of the cyst was done under general anesthesia. Postoperative histopathology was done. The histopathological findings confirm the diagnosis of an epidermoid cyst, characterized by the presence of: (i) a cyst cavity lined by stratified squamous epithelium with keratinization on the surface; and (ii) connective tissue with a mild inflammation. The proposed treatment was considered successful as the case was solved and there was no recurrence. How to cite this article Naik C, Prusty N. Epidermoid Cyst of Tongue: A Case Presentation.

Keratin Layer

The aim of this study was to investigate the type of the epithelium present on the epiglottis surface, through histological examination. The epithelium lining the pharyngeal side of epiglottis is keratinized stratified squamous. The thickness of the keratin layer is different from one subject to another. Usually the keratin layer extends to the apex of the epiglottis, but in some of the animals taken into study, the keratin layer extends to the apical third of the laryngeal side of epiglottis. The epithelium lining the laryngeal side is different. In most of the epiglottises examined, the surface is lined by non-keratinized stratified squamous epithelium in the apical third. The rest of the laryngeal side of the epiglottis is lined by respiratory epithelium type. In one subject, the entire laryngeal surface is lined by a non-keratinized stratified squamous epithelium. Our study highlights that the pharyngeal side of epiglottis is lined by a keratinized stratified squamous epithelium, whereas on the laryngeal side, the epithelium in the apical third is non-keratinized stratified squamous and at the rest of the surface the epithelium is pseudostratified.
