Abstract

In lymphology, there is a great potential of knowledge about the role of the lymphatic system in the implementation of water homeostasis, as one of the most important factors of the constancy of the internal environment of the body, drainage, and detoxification of tissue fluid and lymph. The lymphatic system is one of the first to react to the inflammatory process in any region of the human body; therefore, an obligatory element of the standard of examination of patients is to assess the condition of regional lymph nodes. At the same time, the lack of data on the involvement of the lymphatic system in the development of exudative otitis media hinders the development of new pathogenetically sound modern methods of lymphotropic therapy of one of the diseases common in otorhinolaryngology. In this work, the features of structural transformations of different groups of neck lymph nodes (superficial, facial, deep) belonging to the lymphatic region of the middle ear are studied and shown under physiological conditions, when modeling exudative otitis media and after lymphotropic therapy involving the introduction of a mixture of drugs into tissues using low-frequency ultrasound. According to the degree and nature of the response of the structural components of the nodes to the modeling process in the experiment of exudative inflammation in the middle ear and therapeutic measures aimed at lymphosanation, nodes of the first order – deep lymph nodes, and of the second order – superficial lymph nodes were identified. Therapy aimed at the rehabilitation of the lymphatic region of the middle ear and associated cavities leads to complete normalization of the lymph nodes and relief of inflammatory processes, therefore it can be considered pathogenetically justified.
