图示：左为育龄女性正常阴道粘膜，呈褶皱样外观。宫颈被剖开以示子宫颈内管（图右），与子宫下段相连，一直到宫颈外口呈红斑状外观，符合慢性炎症特征。
The normal adult vaginal mucosa with a wrinkled appearance that is seen in women of reproductive years appears at the left. The cervix has been opened to reveal an endocervical canal leading to the lower uterine segment at the right that has an erythematous appearance extending to the cervical os consistent with chronic inflammation.
