title: [Cellular immunity indices in benign breast tumors].
abstract: Patients with breast cancer, localized fibroadenomatosis and healthy females were examined for the initial state of cell immunity: the reaction of delayed hypersensitivity to DNCB, the absolute and relative amount of rosette forming cells (T-lymphocytes) and the stimulation of lymphocytes under exposure to PHA. A considerable suppression of cell immunity was shown both in breast cancer patients and in patients with benign tumors. The indices of skin allergic test and reaction of spontaneous rosette formation were nearly identical in both groups of the patients under examination. In case of the reaction of lymphocytes blasttransformation in breast cancer patients the stimulation was found to be much lower than in patients with local fibroadenomatosis.
