Abstract

The article presents results of a study on the effectiveness of using lowfrequency ultrasound and photochromotherapy in the complex treatment of patients with chronic bacterial and viral rhinosinusitis. The study involved 69 people aged 18 to 55 years: 39 (56.83 %) women and 30 (45.11 %) men with chronic rhinosinusitis during the period of clinical exacerbation and concomitant chronic tonsillitis without exacerbation. All patients included in the study underwent X-ray examination or computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging of the paranasal sinuses. 100 % of the patients were examined for the presence of antibodies to Human gammaherpesvirus 4 (ELISA), had study of blood serum for IgM and IgG and test to determine the avidity of Ig G antibodies to γ-herpesviruses. The obtained data indicate the effectiveness of including low-frequency ultrasound and photochromotherapy in the complex treatment of patients with chronic rhinosinusitis and concomitant chronic tonsillitis of bacterial and viral nature without exacerbation.
