Popis: Aim. To study the lymphocyte-platelet adhesion in patients with various forms of erysipelas in the dynamics of treatment. Methods. 90 patients with erysipelas participated in the study: 20 with the erythematous-bullous form and 20 with the erythematous form. According to the recurrence of the disease the patients were divided into two groups: the main group (40 patients with the primary form of erysipelas) and the comparison group (50 people with recurrent erysipelas). The control group, which was comparable by sex and age, was comprised of 55 healthy people. The index of lymphocyte-platelet adhesion and hemostasis were studied in all patients. Results. The index of lymphocyte-platelet adhesion sharply declined already during the onset of the disease, despite the fact that no significant changes in the content of the absolute number of lymphocytes compared to healthy individuals during this period were identified. Severe course (erythematous-bullous form) was accompanied by significant shifts in the parameters of lymphocyte-platelet adhesion, and their dynamics made it possible to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment. Conclusion. The ability of lymphocytes to adhere to the surface of platelets is reduced during erysipelas; platelet hyperaggregation develops during the first days of onset of clinical manifestations, the nature and duration of which depends on the form of the disease.
