Popis: Acute tonsillitis (AT) (from Latin tonsillae - tonsils; Russian synonym - "angina" (Engl. sore throat), from Latin ango - clasp, squeeze, strangle) is an acute infectious disease which is locally manifested in acute inflammation of components of the pharyngeal lymphatic ring, often the tonsils. The term angina (in Russian means sore throat) has been known since ancient times; today it is associated with various pathological conditions in the oropharynx with common symptoms but different etiology and course.
