A study was conducted on the lingual tonsil of six male crossbred goats of six months of age. The lingual tonsil could not be identified macroscopically but in histological sections aggregations of lymphocytes were seen within the core of vallate papillae present in the root of tongue. The stratified squamous keratinized surface epithelium was composed of strata basale, spinosum and corneum, arranged in twelve to fifteen layers and measured ±. At the region of small crypts, the surface epithelium presented fewer cell layers and was called reticular epithelium or lymphoepithelium. It measured ± in height and was associated with lymphoid tissue. Hassall’s corpuscles were occasionally detected towards the outer surface epithelium. | Histomorphology and scanning electron microscopy of the lingual tonsil in goats
