Specimens of the uterine tube epithelium (ampulla) were obtained from 20 healthy, prepubertal, ovariohysterectomized gilts. A 2 to 3% proportion of atypical cilia was observed. Of 6,600 transversely sectioned cilia, 122 (1.8%) had microtubular disorganization, whereas 444 of 48,080 totally examined cilia (0.9%) were compound, 104 (0.2%) were swollen, and 44 (0.09%) were intracytoplasmic.
