Aim: To establish the features of clinical and laboratory changes in facial erysipelas in relation to its form.
Subjects And Methods: Twenty-three patients (15 women and 8 men) aged 31 to 78 years who were diagnosed with moderate facial erysipelas, primary facial erysipelas being present in 91% of cases were examined. The investigators studied the biochemical substrates and enzymes and composition of proteins in the serum by an electrophoretic method, the aggregation activity of red blood cells and platelets, plasma hemostasis (a coagulogram, levels of fibrinogen, antithrombin III, and D-dimer), and von Willebrand factor, a marker of vessel wall injury, on hospital admission at disease onset (days 1-3), over time (days 4-6, 7-9), and in convalescence (days 10-12), by obligatorily using control materials.
The aim of the investigation was to study the implication of infectious endotoxicosis in the pathogenesis of erysipelas, by measuring the level of malondialdehyde and the proinflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor-a (TNF-a) depending on the stage, severity, pattern of the disease, and possible complications. Fifty-six patients with erysipelas were followed up. Their blood level of malondialdehyde and TNF-a was determined at the height of the disease and during the reduction of clinical symptoms, and early convalescence.
