The Comparison of Anterior and Posterior Surfaces and Core of Tonsil Microflora in Recurrent Acute Tonsillitis
This study was performed to evaluate the anterior and posterior surfaces and deep tissue localized flora cultures of 76 tonsils recovered from 15 children and 27 adults. As 8 of the tonsil specimens were not appropriate, they were not included in the study. The detection of pathogens at the anterior...

As 8 of the tonsil specimens were not appropriate, they were not included in the study. The detection of pathogens at the anterior sides, the cores, and the posterior sides were 29%, 21%, and 18% in all of the tonsils. No bacteria were isolated from the cores of four materials. The detection of pathogens at the anterior sides, the cores, and the posterior sides were 44%, 37%, and 37% in children and 20%, 12%, and 8% in adults respectively. The beta-lactamase activities of S. aureus, M. catarrhalis and H. influenzae strains were 28%, 59% and 32% at the anterior side, 23%, 50%, and 19% at the core, 34%, 47%, and 25% at the posterior side respectively. The results of our study indicated that S. pyogenes was seen at tonsil surface at higher rates than tonsil core and encountered in children’s tonsils more than adults tonsils.http://www.floradergisi.org/getFileContent.aspx?op=REDPDF&file_name=2001-6-2-101-107.pdfTonsillitisMicroflora |
