Abstract excerpt
Despite the pivotal clinical significance of the human anal canal, little is known about its total and specific innervation. This study assessed the comparative distribution and histotopology of nerve fibres immunoreactive for neural markers and a variety of regulatory active neuropeptides in the human anal canal by light microscopic immunohistochemistry. Depending on the epithelial zone and region of the anal...
