    Abstract:
    The microbial cenosis of tonsils has been studied in healthy and ailing children. It has been found out that Staphylococcus aureus and S. epidermidis, beta-hemolytic streptococcus, rarely gram-negative flora and candidae were most often isolated in the ailing children. Normal microflora of healthy children mainly included lactic acid bacteria whose level considerably decreased in ailing children that is most distinctly expressed in children with decompensated tonsillitis. To correct the disturbances in microbial cenosis during complex therapy we used lactobacteria to treat the nasopharynx with the suspension of these bacteria. Positive clinical effect with following positive results of bacteriological investigation has been obtained in all patients.
