Schwannoma of the palatine tonsil
The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 2005Schwannoma is a solitary, benign tumour arising from the neural sheath Schwann cells of the peripheral, cranial or autonomic nerves. In the head and neck region, it occurs most commonly in association with the acoustic nerve within the skull and is rarely found in oral structures.

Torsion of the palatine tonsil
The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1996AbstractTorsion of a pedunculated part of the palatine tonsil is extremely rare. This paper discusses the clinical presentation, differential diagnosis, treatment of such a case and reviews the existing literature.

Lymphoid Polyps of the Palatine Tonsil
International Journal of Surgical Pathology, 2007Tonsillar lymphoid polyps are uncommon lesions that have rarely been studied. The authors describe the clinical, histopathologic, and immunohistochemical features of 6 tonsillar polyps in which lymphoid tissue represented more than 80% of the lesion. Presenting symptoms were tonsillar mass and/or dysphagia.

Polypoid lipoma of the palatine tonsil
The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1993A polypoid, pedunculated tumour of the left palatine tonsil was incidentally detected in a 42-year-old female. It was composed of mature fat and was covered by a nonkeratinizing squamous epithelium with an underlying rim of fibrous tissue. The literature on tonsillar lipoma is reviewed and the differential diagnosis of polypoid lesions of the tonsil is

The Crypt System of the Palatine Tonsils
Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1962The microscopic structure of the tonsils has been thoroughly examined for centuries by innumerable authors. Emphasis has been placed mainly upon the anatomy and physiology of the tissue between the crypts, but very little upon the structure and behavior of the crypts themselves.

Papillary Hypertrophy of the Palatine Tonsils
Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 1980Papillary hypertrophy of the tonsils is one of the rare abnormalities of the palatine tonsils. Since the first reports of papillary hypertrophy of the tonsils by Ogino and Matsui, only 30 cases of this disease have been reported in Japan. The etiology of papillary hypertrophy remains a mystery. A 5-year-old female visited our clinic with a complaint of

Palatine tonsils: physiology and pathology
Vestnik otorinolaringologii, 2019The article presents modern ideas about the etiology, pathogenesis, and features of the clinical picture of chronic tonsillar pathology. Specific attention is paid to the classification of chronic tonsillitis, in particular the classification of B.S. Preobrazhensky - V.T. Palchun.

The epithelium of canine palatine tonsils
Anatomy and Embryology, 1995The palatine tonsil is positioned to play a key role in protecting the body against ingested microorganisms. These microorganisms must traverse the tonsillar epithelium to initiate immune reactions, but no information is available from dogs on the structure of this epithelium.

Comparative Immunobiology of the Palatine Tonsil
Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1988Most structural and functional differences in organs of the mammalian immune system are probably adaptive modifications to a variety of environments and modes of life. Fioretti (1961) reported that the tonsils are composed of lymphoid nodules, paranodular areas, capsules of connective tissues, epithelial crypts and lymphoid cells invading the ...

A 7-year-old spayed female Doberman Pinscher had a fluctuant red mass that filled the entire crypt of the left palatine tonsil. The mass was surgically excised and was found to be a tonsillar cyst on histologic examination. Because the cyst was lined with pseudostratified epithelium, embryonic origin was the most probable etiopathogenesis.
