RESUMO

We suggest that human endometrial ciliated cells represent a developmental overlap with the uterine tube epithelium and that the high incidence of ciliary abnormality is related to the relatively high turnover rate caused by menstruation. Abnormal cilia appear to be due to a defect of ciliogenesis probably occurring after the formation of the basal bodies.
