title: [Importance of determining halo-formation in comprehensive diagnosis of neoplasms in the large salivary glands].
abstract: An original diagnostic test in study of the functional state of segmented neutrophils, based on the halo-formation phenomenon, was investigated in patients with neoplastic and non-neoplastic diseases of the large salivary glands. Donors formed the control group. Analysis of the results showed a marked increase of the number of halo forming cells in patients with various forms of malignant new growths of these organs. The suggested test is recommended for use as an index of the functional activity of segmented neutrophils in malignant growth.
