Journal: Orv Hetil; 1990 Mar 04; 131(9):475-7. PubMed ID: 2179814. Abstract: The author observed cellular immune defect confirmed by lymphoblast transformation and hypozincemia in a 15-year old boy whose ulcerative stomatitis had been recurring for 6 years monthly and was treated without success besides local treatment with chronic administration of steroid, isoprinosin, interferon and lysosim. 3 X 50 mg of zinc sulphate given per os daily for 3 months resulted in permanent clinically symptom free condition and in the normalization of the lymphoblast transformation rate.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
