Title: Survey of uvula (soft palate) Description: Stain Azan, adult human. At the left (oral side, non-keratinized stratified squamous epithelium); at the right (nasal side, same epithelium at this level). In the submucosa mainly mucous palatine glands are localized. At the top, reddish-stained striated muscle of the uvular muscle between the mucous palatine (left) and mixed pharyngeal (right) glands. The uvular tip is richly vascularized. 3.2 POJA-L15 Title: Uvula 1 (soft palate) Description: Stain Azan, human. Detail of the uvula at the oral side; non-keratinized stratified squamous epithelium. Note richly vascularized lamina propria. In the submucosa mainly mucous palatine glands with draining ducts. 3.2 POJA-L16 Title: Uvula 2 (soft palate) Description: Stain Azan, human. Detail of the uvula at the nasal side shows the border between the non-keratinized stratified squamous epithelium (right, oral side) and pseudostratified columnar epithelium (left, nasal side). The lamina propria is composed of dense connective tissue. At the bottom part of a blood-filled cyst. |
