    Author: Canto Solís A, Miranda Feria AJ, Medina Martinez J, Teran Ortíz LA, Suárez Sánchez F.
    Journal: Prensa Med Mex; 1975; 40(9-10):275-81. PubMed ID: 1082130.
    Abstract:
    The authors studied 10 cases of amoebic hepatic abscess documented by clinical evidence and confirmed by laboratory tests, liver scan and a good response to treatment. The immunological state of the patients was determined by protein electrophoresis, immunoelectrophoresis, counter-immunoelectrophoresis, radial immunodiffusion and roset formation for T and B lymphocytes. It is concluded that the alterations of cellular and humoral immunity is evident in cases of amoebic hepatic abscess; this alterations are more clear in the acute form of the illness and the immunological deficiency is more significant in the celular immunity.
