In 60 ears with secretory otitis and mucous effusion, the different kinds of epithelium in biopsy specimens from the promontory and in five postmortem cases from other localities in the middle ear are described. Most frequently, the epithelium was thick, pseudostratified, and ciliated, with pronounced basal cell hyperplasia and increase in goblet cell density. No correlation was found between the amount of effusion and the thickness of the epithelium, the basal cell hyperplasia, and the goblet cell density. In autopsies, many different kinds of epithelium were found, such as one-layered, flat, two- or three-layered, cuboidal, pseudostratified, and columnar epithelium with and without basal cell hyperplasia. The appearance of the epithelium was dependent on the stage of the chronic disease, indicating that the epithelium changes during the course of the disease.
在60例分泌性中耳炎伴黏液渗出的病例中，描述了取自岬部的活检标本以及来自中耳其他部位的5例尸检病例中的不同类型上皮。最常见的是上皮增厚、假复层且有纤毛，伴有明显的基底细胞增生和杯状细胞密度增加。未发现渗出液量与上皮厚度、基底细胞增生及杯状细胞密度之间存在相关性。在尸检中，发现了许多不同类型的上皮，如单层扁平上皮、两层或三层立方上皮、假复层上皮和柱状上皮，有或无基底细胞增生。上皮的外观取决于慢性疾病的阶段，表明上皮在疾病过程中会发生变化。
