Clinico-anatomic analysis of section and biopsy materials (skin, kidneys; synovial membranes of joints, lungs) was performed to study the effect of immunosuppressive and antiinflammatory therapy on the course and morphological manifestations of rheumatic diseases. In rheumatic fever, predominant involvement of valvular endocardium with flaccid asymptomatic course was observed with the lack of vasculitis and myocardial involvement, decreased fatality rate, a shift of fatality and morbility to middle age groups suggesting changes in the epidemiology of the disease and pathomorphosis of this nosological form. In systemic lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis, treatment of the disease positively affects its clinical, morphological, and immunological manifestations, i. e. partial pathomorphosis (nosomorphosis) occurs.

Scanning electron microscopic study of the morphology and surface architectonics of erythrocytes in patients with acquired aortic and mitral valve diseases showed signs of morphological restructuring of the erythrocyte population. Reversibly transformed transitional red blood cells and irreversibly changed prehemolytical and degenerative erythrocytes were much more incident in these patients than in donors. The number of functionally intact biconcave discocytes notably decreased in comparison with donors.
