Fig.12 93W7125, Ureter (cs) , HE. The thick epitheliai lining
is the transitional epithelium (Ep). The remainder of the wall is
made up of connective tissue (CT) and smooth muscle. The
transitional epithelium and its supporting connective tissue
constitute the mucosa (Muc). A distinct submucosa is not
present. The muscularis (Mus) is arranged as an inner
longitudinal layer (SM(l)), a middle circular layer (SM(c)), and
an outer longitudinal layer (SM(l)). However, the outer
longitudinal layer is present only at the lower end of the ureter.
By the way, there are blood vessels (BV) and lymphatic
nodule (LN) in the serosa (Ser).
