The sections show appendiceal mucosa with focal ulceration, as demonstrated by intraluminal debris and neutrophils, and marked reactive mucosal/submucosal lymphoid hyperplasia. There are no granulomas and no crypt architectural changes of chronic inflammation. The muscularis propria is not infiltrated by inflammatory cells, nor is the serosal surface. The proximal resection margin is intact. Ganglion cells are present. | |||
