MODERN APPROACHES TO DIAGNOSTICS OF DISEASES ASSOCIATED WITH CHRONIC TONSILLITIS
Abstract
Chronic tonsillitis (CT) is one of the most common diseases in ENT practice ,
found in approximately 30% of the adult population according to statistics [1]. Despite
the fact that the diagnostic criteria for local manifestations of CT are well defined, there
are many uncertainties regarding the diagnosis of concomitant diseases. Unfortunately,
many otolaryngologists rely only on pharyngoscopic data and local diseases associated
with CT when choosing treatment tactics. Traditional pharyngoscopic findings include
the signs of Zak , Giese, Preobrazhensky, as well as the presence of pus and caseous
plugs in the lacunae, tonsil adhesions, etc., often along with already developed local
diseases (paratonsillitis, parapharyngitis , mediastinitis) [2].
