In this investigation we would like to evaluate what changes in cytology of the nasal mucosa occur after surgical removal of adenoids. The investigation was performed on 25 children (10 girls and 15 boys) aged 3-13. Material for the cytological evaluation was obtained from the nasal concha. The children were tested twice: before and one month after the surgery. Cytograms of the nasal mucosa of children with adenoidal hypertrophy before the surgery showed increased number of neutrophils. Cytological normalisation of the nasal mucosa occurs in one month after the surgical removal. In two children percentage of eosinophils in cytograms increased and percentage of neutrophils remained significant after the surgery. Cytological assessment of the nasal mucosa performed before and after surgical removal of the hypertrophied adenoid is helpful in evaluation of the accomplished therapy and may indicate what are the reasons of its failure.
