General and Systemic Histopathology, C601&C602

This slide shows a benign mucinous cyst in the wall of the esophagus. First get yourself oriented as to where the mucosal and the serosal surfaces are. Then take note of the cyst lining. |

The picture in this case shows only the cyst lining and a portion of the muscular wall of the esophagus. Note that the lining of the cyst is columnar and mucous secreting epithelium. That's about it for this slide. |
