Figure 3: Torus tubarius with overlying gland histology and immunohistochemistry Torus tubarius on HE-staining and PSMA-Immunohistochemistry. Histological slides showing the dorsolateral nasopharynx at the level of the torus tubarius (A, 25x) with detail showing an annotated HE-staining (B, 100x). Correlating PSMA staining (C, 25x) with annotated detail showing gland cells covering the cartilage and with the densest collection of mucous PSMA-positive acini overlying the torus tubarius (D, 100x). For an overview with lower magnification see Fig.1 in the Supplementary material.
Figure 4: Interactive 3D-reconstruction of histological slides. Schematic representation of region of the torus tubarius with overlying gland, in its anatomical setting (left) and as 3D-histology reconstruction (right). The glandular tissue is shown in yellow (acini) and light blue (ducts). This dorsomedial view, demonstrates the relation of the tubarial gland to the underlying torus tubarius cartilage (dark blue) and muscle (pink). An interactive 3D-PDF with the full reconstruction data can be found in Fig.2 in the Supplementary material.
