Abstract:
In children with relapsing DU in 50.8% cases there is a complicated disease course with Candida infection, as evidenced by the positive results of mycological examination of biopsy specimens of duodenal mucosa and detection of circulating Candida antigen in serum. The use in the complex therapy in children with DU associated with Candida species of instant New Zealand goat milk "Amalteya" leads to an overall therapeutic effect in 81.3% cases, which is manifested in the reduction of the duration of relapse 1.4 times prolongation of remission in 3 times and milder disease. Carried out in the dynamics fibrogastroduodenoscopy after treatment showed that 100% of the observed total endoscopic remission which is manifested in the disappearance of opalescent gray overlay on the bottom of the ulcer and ulcer epithelization.
