Description: Adenoid or retiform tissue consists of a very delicate network of minute fibrils, formed originally by the union of processes of branched connective-tissue corpuscles, the nuclei of which, however, are visible only during the early periods of development of the tissue. Shown is part of a section of a lymphatic gland from which the corpuscles have been for the most part removed, showing the adenoid reticulumn.
