Microscopically, there are found in the less advanced cases areas ofpavement epithelium where normally the ciliated kind should be in the disease the submucous tissues present the round-celled in-filtration usual to chronic inflammatory processes ; later these organizeinto cicatricial tissue. The mucous glands become obliterated, sufferampullar enlargement in places, diminish in number, and the muscularelements of the erectile tissue atrophy. The specialized epithelium ofthe olfactory region also suffers metaplasia, so that in most cases ofatrophic rhinitis the sense of smell is lost. Frankel found that the Fig.
