Ciliocytophthoria (CCP) defines a degenerative process of the ciliated cells consequent to viral infections, and it is characterized by typical morphological changes. We evaluated the distinct and characteristic phases of CCP, by means of the optical microscopy of the nasal mucosa (nasal cytology), in 20 patients (12 males and 8 females; aged between 18 and 40 years). Three phases of CCP by nasal cytology are detected. This outcome confirms that CCP represents a sign of suffering nasal epithelial cell.
纤毛细胞脱落（CCP）定义了病毒感染后纤毛细胞的一种退行性过程，其特征为典型的形态学改变。我们通过鼻黏膜光学显微镜检查（鼻细胞学），对20例患者（12例男性和8例女性；年龄在18至40岁之间）评估了CCP的不同特征阶段。通过鼻细胞学检测到CCP的三个阶段。这一结果证实CCP代表鼻上皮细胞受损的一个迹象。
