title: [Quantitative immunohistological analysis of cell-mediated immunity in osteomyelitic bone tissue].
abstract: The present investigation allows an exact identification and quantification of cell populations involved in local cell-mediated immunity of osteomyelitic bone tissue. Determinations of systemic immunity carried out in osteomyelitis patients indicated the distribution of immunogenic cells in the osteomyelitic focus only indirectly. The method described combined with simultaneous determination of the systemic immunity and cell mediators can lead to a quantitative description of cell-mediated immunity and in turn to a better understanding of the interaction of cells and transmitters involved in osteomyelitis.
