MYCOPLASMA INFECTION IN CHILDREN
Based on fundamental research data and own clinical experience, the authors describe the basic properties of mycoplasma, epidemiology, clinical manifestations of the different variants of the mycoplasmosis and treatment in children. It is noted that the mycoplasma infection in children is accompanied by long-term antigenemia that cause relapses and autoimmunization. All above mentioned is the rationale for the optimization of causal and pathogenetic therapy of mycoplasmosis, aimed at correcting the significant disturbances in the immunoresistance of the organism and endothelial function in children suffering from mycoplasmosis.
