title: [Nasal cytology in patients with non-seasonal atopic rhinitis].
abstract: The results of the cytological evaluation of the nasal smears taken from the patients with non-seasonal atopic rhinitis were presented. In 95% of smears a very abundant cytological material of the columnar epithelium cells was found. The smears taken by cyto-brushing (Medscand) showed the presence of the cytological material from the whole nasal mucosa, while those taken by the loop contained the cells from the small area of the mucosa.
