[Proinflammatory cytokines in wound discharge and peripheral blood in patients with gunshot osteomyelitis of extremities].
Examination of 36 patients with gunshot osteomyelitis of extremities having the disease during 1-5 years has established that in acute gunshot osteomyelitis the concentration of antiinflammatory cytokines was rapidly increasing both in the blood serum and in the wound discharge. In the chronic course of the process the concentration of antiinflammatory cytokines in blood is a little higher than normal and only an analysis of the wound discharge can reflect the dynamics of the inflammatory (suppuration) process.
