[Lymphocyte subpopulations in the adenoids analyzed by flow cytometry].

Abstract

Adenoid hypertrophy is a common problem of childhood. The peak occurrence of adenoid hypertrophy correlates with the onset of serous otitis media. The aim of the study was to evaluate the lymphocyte subpopulations in the adenoids of children with serous otitis media. The adenoids obtained from 65 children at the age of 1 to 17 years were examined. Two groups were studied: 1) children with persistent effusion in the middle ear, 2) children with adenoid hypertrophy without a history of otitis media. The percentage of the lymphocytes B in the adenoids was similar in both groups. However, the percentage of lymphocytes T (p < 0.04), and CD4+ (p < 0.005) was significantly lower in adenoids of children with serous otitis media. The percentage of lymphocytes T HLA-DR+ was slightly higher in this group, but the percentage of lymphocytes T CD25+ was the same in both groups. The quantitative differences in the lymphocyte subpopulations of adenoids may be the predisposing factor in serous otitis media.
