Evaluation of neurohumoral reactions in the selection of surgical methods for patients with bronchial asthma

The activity of cholino- and adrenoreceptors of blood T-lymphocytes was studied to elaborate the indications for operative interventions various parts of the autonomous nervous system in 117 patients with bronchial asthma. Selective denervation of the root of the lung and glomectomy with denervation of the sinocarotid zone was found to be the most effective type of surgical treatment. The clinical effect of operative treatment is linked with normalization of the activity of cholinoreceptors of blood T-lymphocytes. The high informativeness of the test was demonstrated in predicting the results of operative treatment of patients with bronchial asthma.
