Abstract AR

قيمت الحالة الجرثومية لخمج اللوزتين في 168 مريض من مدينة بغداد و بمدى عمري 3-35 سنة.

أوضح العزل و التشخيص أربعة أنواع جرثومية و هي الجرثومة العقدية المحلة للدم بيتا (39.3 %) و العنقودية الذهبية (23.8 %) و Haemophilus influenza (8، 20 %) و الجرثومة المحلة للدم آلفا (16.1 %)، و قد اختلفت النسب المئوية للخمج هذه الأنواع باختلاف الجنس.

و عند تصنيف النوع الأول حسب طريقة لانسفيلد خمسة مجاميع مصلية (أ، ب، د، ج، غير مشخصة).

كانت المجموعة أ أكثرها تكرارا (72.7 %) و تلتها في ذلك المجموعة ب (13.6 %) في حين تماثلت النسب المئوية الباقية (4.5 %).
