Análise histológica de 24 tonsilas faríngeas de pacientes submetidos à adenoidectomia ou à adenoamigdalectomia

Abstract: Introdução:O epitélio que reveste a tonsila faríngea é descrito como epitélio colunar pseudoestratificado ciliado com células caliciformes. Forma de Estudo: Experimental. Objetivo: Descrição dos tipos de epitélio de revestimento de tonsilas faríngeas e a freqüência de ocorrência destes diferentes tipos. Material e Método: Foram analisados cortes histológicos de 24 tonsilas faríngeas obtidas de adenoidectomia ou adenoamigdalectomia, em crianças de três a sete anos, no Departamento de Otorrinolaringologia da Irm… Show more

“…Palatine tonsils are part of the Waldeyer's lymphatic ring, responsible for the first line of defence against pathogens because it is located at the entrance of the respiratory and digestive tracts. 1,2 The lateral wall of the Waldeyer's ring composed of the bulky lymphatic tissue called the palatine tonsil. 1 It is lined by non-keratinous stratified epithelium, as an extension of the oropharyngeal tissue, including 30 deep crypts that invaginate into the parenchyma, in which lymph nodes are found with the germ centres responsible for B-lymphocyte production.…”

“…4 They are coated by fibrous and dense capsule, separating them from a deeper connective tissue. 1,2 Such type of tonsils arise from the second pair of pharyngeal pouches, where endodermis bears the covering epithelium and mesenchymal structure gives origin to the lymphoid tissue. 5 During life, palatine tonsils may go through morphological alterations, becoming enlarged due to lymphoid follicles of the germ centre; or histological changes resulting from recurrent infections, among which some are indicative of tonsillectomy.…”
