Early diagnosis and treatment of chronic tonsillitis using modern methods

According to the majority of modern researchers, based on the results of evidence-based studies, the leading etiological factor in the development of CT, as well as its local and general complications, is beta-hemolytic streptococcus group A (BGSA), which, according to various data, ranges from 32.5% to 60%. The initial stage of colonization is the fixation of streptococci to the pharyngeal epithelium as a result of ligand-receptor interaction. Approaches to the treatment of chronic tonsillitis are considered. It is shown that photodynamic therapy of chronic tonsillitis is a highly effective etiotropic method of complex therapy of tonsillar pathology.
