THE NASAL MUCOSA CONDITIONAL CHARACTRISTICS IN SEASONAL POLLEN ALLERGIC RHINITIS
The nasal mucosa condition in 60 almost normal subjects and in 42 ones wits seasonal pollinosis was studied by using of cytologic smear analysis. The real eosinophil level in the acute stage of seasonal allergic rhinitis against a background of high cylindrical epithelium desquamation increases. The remission characterized with marked citosis mainly due to neutrophilia, eosinophilia and high cylindrical epithelium desquamation, shows the chronic stage of allergic inflammation. A decrease in destructive sings of cylindrical epithelium reflects the inflammatory process. The process affects the deep layers, causes a high desquamational level of indestructed epithelial cells.
