The American Journal of Surgical Pathology, 1988
The normal gross and microscopic morphology of the anal canal is described, including the more common variants. Constant problems in the literature are the confusing terminology and the relation of the histological zones to the so-called cloacal membrane. For this reason, the review includes remarks on the history, embryology, and nomenclature.

Melanocytes in the anal canal epithelium

Histopathology, 1991
We studied the presence of melanocytes in the various epithelial zones of the anal canal, using a recently introduced melanocyte‐specific antibody (HMB‐45) together with antibody to S‐100 protein. In normal anal canals and in haemorrhoids, melanocytes, defined as intraepithelial HMB‐45/S‐100 positive cells, were frequently demonstrated in the anal ...
