[Immunity in children with acquired scarry stenosis of the larynx and cervical trachea. Communication 2. The status of T-cell immunity].

T-cell immunity was studied in 59 children (39 boys-66.1% and 20 girls-33.9%) with acquired stenosis of the larynx and cervical trachea at the age of 1 year 9 months to 14 years 8 months. Compromised T-cell immunity was revealed in the examinees, especially in those who had acute infectious-inflammatory diseases or CNS damage before critical care responsible for development of the stenosis. These changes in T-cell immunity should be considered as a factor of risk to develop immune and autoimmune diseases.
