Abstract
Smears from the nasal side of epipharynx in patients with epipharingitis were stanied, by Pa-pinicolaou's method, microsopic examination was made and following results were obtained:
1. Acute epipharyngitis: In this group, swelling of cells and irregular arrangement of cells are remarkable.
2. Chronic epipharyngitis (without purulent nasal discharge): In this group, cells appear nomal in shape but are larger in size.
3. Chronic epipharyngitis (with purulent discharge): Cells and nuclei are swoller and the out-line of the cells are not clear. (and Mucinous change is also prominent. change are prominent.)
