    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronic_atrophic_rhinitis

    The ciliated columnar epithelium of the nasal mucosa is replaced by stratified squamous epithelium. Atrophy of mucosa, turbinal bones and seromucinous glands tends to occur, due to obliterative endarteritis and periarteritis causing decreased blood supply, hence the supplying area atrophies. [6] Arrested development of paranasal sinuses.

  6. Leukoedema - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leukoedema

    It is a harmless and very common condition. Because it is so common, it has been argued that it may in fact represent a variation of the normal appearance rather than a disease, [2] but empirical evidence suggests that leukoedema is an acquired condition caused by local irritation. [3] It is found more commonly in black skinned people and ...

  7. Simple squamous epithelium - Wikipedia

    Within the cardiovascular system such as lining capillaries or the inside of the heart, simple squamous epithelium is specifically called the endothelium. [3] Cells are flat with flattened and oblong nuclei. It is also called pavement epithelium due to its tile-like appearance. This epithelium is associated with filtration and diffusion.

    Biopsies of the lesions show hypertrophied stratified squamous mucosa with glycogen deposition in the mucosa. [1] Clinically, mild glycogenic acanthosis is a normal finding, and does not progress to esophageal cancer or to stricture. [4] It is not related to leukoplakia, and is not dysplastic or premalignant.
