The followings are essentials of my report under the above mentioned subject, especially of the relationship between the mucosa structure and hemorrhagic tendency.
Optical and electron-microscopic observations were made of the mucosae removed from the Kiesselbach's area, believed to be almost normal, in fifteen cases with slight deviation of the nasal septum.
1 The mucosae at the Kiesselbach's area are morphologically characterized with the presence of intraepithelial blood vessels and a covering of stratified epithelium with poorly developed connetive structure.
2. The electron-morphologically established existence of intraepithelial blood vessels and poorly developed connection of epithelial cells of the mucosa at the Kiesselbach's area is considered to provide an important morphological evidence for the cause of hemorrhage at the area.
