The Cervical Endometrium. Like that of the body of the uterusthis membrane consists of a surface epithelium, with stroma andglands. The epithelium is again of columnar type and is continuousat the internal os with that investing the cavity of the uterine Fig. 14. Section through the Cer-vical Endometrium. The surfaceepithelium consists of a single layer ofhigh palisade cells, the stroma is lesscellular and contains much more fibroustissue than that of the uterine body. further information on this 20 GYNECOLOGY
