[Changes in the number of immunocompetant cerebrospinal fluid cells in epileptic patients following air insufflation into the subarachnoid space].
In 10 patients with various forms of epilepsy the effect of air insufflation into the subarachnoidal space on the number of immunocompetent cells in the cerebrospinal liquor and the peripheral blood was studied. A sharp rise of the percentage of the T- and B-lymphocytes in the cerebrospinal liquor was noted as a result of the insufflation. Examinations of the blood before the insufflation and in the presence of the pronounced post-insufflation meningeal syndrome did not reveal any distinct regularity. A direct relationship between the liquor immune reaction and the intensity of the post-insufflation meningeal syndrome was noted.
