Puerperae with acute and chronic pyelonephritis complicated by gestosis often develop postpartum inflammatory complications in the presence of marked deficiency of T lymphocytes and phagocytic function. Clinical criteria are suggested to single out risk groups. Prophylactic injections of leukinferon (alpha-interferon) and other immune response first phase cytokines in complex with metabolic agents help almost normalize the immunologic parameters in the majority of puerperae within 3-6 days and reduce threefold the incidence of early and late postpartum inflammatory complications.
