Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, Sahlgrenska University Hospital, Goteborg, Sweden
Acta Otolaryngol 122:206-9. 2002..It is concluded that there is a hyperactive cellular defense in the tonsillar surface secretion in patients with recurrent tonsillitis. This finding and its significance in the pathogenesis of recurrent tonsillitis are discussed...
Bacterial adherence to mucosal epithelium in the upper airways has less significance than believedAnders Ebenfelt

Clin Oral Investig 11:293-6. 2007..The granulocytes, however, did not show any signs of phagocytosis. The patients all developed mucositis. We propose that the granulocytes in the secretion might play an important role in the development of mucositis during radiotherapy...
