The hypothesised mode of action for Erbium laser is that through selectively heating the submucosa a process of neocollagenesis and neo vascularisation occurs.
12.
A submucosa may or may not be present deep to the dense layer of the lamina propria, depending on the region of the oral cavity.
13.
The mucus factory is at the bottom, in the submucosa, it is composed of many little sacs ( acini ) where the mucus originates.
14.
The bulking materials are intended for injection between the urethral submucosa and the superficial urethral muscle and between the bladder neck and the mid-urethra.
15.
Esophageal webs are thin ( 2-3mm ) membranes of normal esophageal tissue consisting of mucosa and submucosa that can partially protrude / obstruct the esophagus.
16.
Having undergone their final moult, once the L5 ( adult ) worms reach the oesophageal submucosa they mature, breed and the females lay microscopic eggs.
17.
This is a modification of the perineal rectosigmoidectomy, differing in that only the mucosa and submucosa are excised from the prolapsed segment, rather than full thickness resection.
18.
More specifically, peptic ulcers erode the muscularis mucosae, at least to the level of the submucosa ( contrast with erosions, which do not involve the muscularis mucosae ).
19.
Treatment involves filling the fistula with fibrin glue; also plugging it with plugs made of porcine small intestine submucosa have also been explored in recent years, with variable success.
20.
If present, the submucosa usually contains loose connective tissue and may also contain adipose tissue or salivary glands, as well as overlying bone or muscle within the oral cavity.
