[Various mechanisms of the pathogenesis and etiotropic therapy of neurologic forms of epidemic parotitis].

Immunoenzymatic, clinical and follow up study of 3500 patients suffering from nervous forms of epidemic parotitis was performed. It is concluded that the adaptive humoral enzymes, ribonuclease and trypsin, the persistence of antigen to epidemic parotitis virus in CSF lymphocytes as well as the immunologic status of the patient at the disease onset play the leading role in the pathogenesis of its acute phase. It advisable to examine the factors enumerated in order to predict the clinical course of the disease. The treatment with adaptive enzymes was of great efficacy in 660 patients.
