Abstract
The issues of complex treatment of patients with tubo-ovarian abscesses (TOA) in the reproductive period were considered, the main component of which is ultrasound minimally invasive surgery – drainage of purulent inflammatory tubo-ovarian mass using transvaginal ultrasound. The technique, indications and contraindications for such treatment were presented. The immune homeostasis of patients with TOA was also studied, and it was shown that they had the expansive nature of proinflammatory changes in cytokine production, as well as activation of the Th1-type lymphocytes with a simultaneous decrease in the Th2-type lymphocytes activity. Therefore, it is appropriate to include immunostimulating agents in the complex of therapeutic measures, particularly inosine pranobex. Conclusion. Drainage of TOA under the control of transvaginal ultrasound can be considered as the choice of treatment of patients of reproductive age. Sixty days after the complex treatment, the proinflammatory nature of cytokine production in these patients changed to mild proinflammatory. Key words: tubo-ovarian abscesses, ultrasound mini-surgery, drainage, inosine pranobex
