We investigated immunological parameters in patients with extensive purulent peritonitis (EPP). It is established that the EPP revealed an imbalance in the immune system which is characterized by a deficiency of cellular part and increased activity of the humoral. Status of cellular immunity is determined by the decrease in the EPP number of T- (primarily through fractions of cytotoxic T-lymphocytes and expressing of late activation. marker), NK- and NKT-cells. In the peripheral blood of patients with EPP increases the content of Th-cells and B1-lymphocytes. Status humoral immunity in the EPP is characterized by increased Ig A and Ig G levels. With the help of correlation analysis and the separate definition of the entropy of the lymphocytes phenotypic composition and immunoglobulins found an increase in regulatory effect on the humoral immunity.
