Abstract: | The structure and distribution of lymphoglandular complexes of the colon are described. The cellular composition of these complexes, as detailed by immunohistochemistry and electron microscopy, suggests that they are sites of antigen processing. Variations in structure and in the number of complexes that are found in certain colonic diseases are documented. |
