The appendix is a tubular evagination in the cecum of the large intestine. The lumen of the appendix is usually small and frequently contains dead cells and detritus.
Large rounded projections (yellow) are apparent in the folded mucosa (blue). These projections are folds of the epithelial layer over lymphatic nodules, which occur in large numbers in the underlying lamina propria and submucosa.
The smaller apertures in the folded mucosa (blue) are the openings into the crypts of Lieberkuhn.
