title: [The activity of chronic inflammation of palatine tonsils mucosa in chronic tonsillitis before and after treatment using UZOL-01-Ch device].
abstract: A low-frequency ultrasound device UZOL-01-Ch was applied for therapy of chronic tonsillitis (CT). The activity of chronic inflammation was followed up under action of 0.05% dioxidine solution coming through the device UZOL-01-Ch on the tissues of palatine tonsils in CT at a clinical remission phase in 34 CT patients. CT activity degrees were proposed which were defined by the presence and distribution of polymorphonuclear neutrophils in inflammatory cellular infiltrate of palatine tonsil mucosa in CT. These degrees help assessed the results of therapeutic effect of the device UZOL-01-Ch on tonsil tissue in CT. Use of the device provided depression of inflammation activity in tonsil mucosa in CT patients at a clinical remission phase.
