The evaluation of the effectiveness of bacterial lysate in preoperative preparation of children with adenotonsillar pathology
In childhood, the occurrence and steady growth of diseases of the nasopharyngeal tonsils, often acquiring a chronic course and occurring with exacerbations and complications, is facilitated by a number of factors. Etiological factors of adenotonsillar diseases in children are both bacterial and viral pathogens, among which respiratory viruses are among the most significant. Herpes virus infections (HVI) play an important role in the development of chronic upper respiratory tract pathology, especially in the cohort of frequently ill children. Representatives of the herpes virus family are characterized by lymphotropic action, long-term persistence in the body, and a tendency to reproduce in cells, leading to a violation of the immune status. The incidence of relapses in the postoperative period during surgical interventions in the ENT organs in children remains high. Herpesvirus etiology of recurrent infectious and inflammatory diseases of the URT (upper respiratory tract) is the leading factor in the ineffectiveness of tonsillotomy, adenotomy, and repeated proliferation of lymphoid tissue in the postoperative period in preschool children. The use of a drug from the group of bacterial lysates before surgery is justified in the treatment of frequently and long-term ill children with adenotonsillar hypertrophy.
