The tonsils of 147 patients with chronic tonsillitis and the adenoids of 134 children with recurrent respiratory infections were cultured for fungal organisms and studied microscopically. A control group consisted of 68 healthy persons. Positive cultures were obtained in 64% of patients with chronic tonsillitis, in 21% of children treated with adenoidectomy, and in 69% of the control group. Candida albicans, Saccharomyces sp. and Aspergillus were the most common organisms. The histological investigations revealed no evidence of pathogenecity in these organisms. They were found in the tonsillar crypts, and no granulomatous inflammation was seen surrounding them.
对147例慢性扁桃体炎患者的扁桃体以及134例反复呼吸道感染儿童的腺样体进行真菌培养及显微镜检查。对照组由68名健康人组成。慢性扁桃体炎患者中64%培养结果呈阳性，腺样体切除术后的儿童中21%培养结果呈阳性，对照组中69%培养结果呈阳性。白色念珠菌、酿酒酵母属和曲霉菌是最常见的微生物。组织学检查未发现这些微生物具有致病性的证据。它们存在于扁桃体隐窝中，周围未见肉芽肿性炎症。
