ABSTRACT
Where palatine tonsils sanitation in patients with multiple somatic pathology is necessary, the methods of palatine tonsils instrumental lavement are unavailable due to medical contraindications. The authors suggest creating temporary but rather long-lasting (up to 1 hour) medication depot in the palatine tonsils lacunae lumen as a treatment of chronic tonsillitis in patients with multiple background pathology. The result is achieved due to the fact that a glycerolcontainingmedication (antiseptic or antibiotic solution) is injected into the open mouth of a purified lacuna. Glycerol provides a weak adhesive effect of the solution. After that the lacuna mouth is closed and sealed by means of a medical preparation – propolis-containing adhesive gel preserving its properties for an hour. The temporary fixation of medical preparations in the soft tissues of the palatine tonsils dispalys a quick positive clinical effect, which is confirmed by subjective senses, visual changes during pharyngoscopia, cytological and bacteriological tests. The authors executed a patent application No. 2016122820, priority date 08.06.2016.
