Enteric infection with Yersinia enterocolitica is often associated with small focal non‐specific ulcerations in the appendix and sometimes with basophilic stem cell hyperplasia or proliferation of large pyroninophilic cells in mesenteric lymph nodes. This proliferation correlates comparatively well with an early antibody response. The clinicopathological and immunological aspects of the findings are discussed.
