FEATURES OF INNATE IMMUNE RESPONSE IN PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC OSTEOMYELITIS DEPENDING ON THE MICROBIAL LANDSCAPE
In the preoperative period examined 52 patients with chronic posttraumatic osteomyelitis of the lower limbs. Analyzed the results of the microbiological examination of pathological material, phagocytic and metabolic status of peripheral blood neutrophils. The main pathogen is S. aureus, which stood out in monoculture and in association with other microorganisms, increasing the number of strains in microbial associations leads to an increase in phagocytic and metabolic activity of neutrophils, increases the number of neutrophil extracellular traps.
