[Correlation between immunohistochemical indices of adenoid vegetations and health of ailing children].

We studied correlations between clinical characteristics of ailing children and their immunohistochemical parameters. Clinical status was assessed by the degree of adenoid vegetations, duration of the disease, the presence of chronic tonsillitis or its combination with adenoiditis. We used the following immunohistochemical parameters: the level of CD3+ in histological slices and the presence or absence of IgA-producing cells.
