Abstract

The results presented testify to the high clinical effectiveness of therapy of adenoid disease based on photodynamic effects caused by combined action of physical (red light) and chemical factors (methylene blue) on pathogenic microorganisms. Original physiotherapy device and autonomous photostimulator of “Duny” Inc. were used. Clinical results have a good correlation with results of bacteriological and cell research conducted in vivo and in vitro.
