Light micrograph section through human tissue showing the rectum and anal canal. The rectum is histologically similar to the colon, and there is an abrupt transition between the rectal simple columnar epithelium and the stratified epithelium of the anal canal. The anal canal epithelium may appear stratified cuboidal at the junction with the rectum, but it assumes a typical stratified squamous appearance more distally. | |
