Resumen

El efecto antioxidante de la superóxido dismutasa (SOD) en saliva fue evaluado mediante su cuantificación en niños con hipertrofia amigdalar, amigdalitis de repetición o absceso periamigdalino. Estos niveles fueron comparados con los detectados en tejido amigdalar obtenido por amigdalectomía (p < 0,001). Aunque la concentración de SOD salivar fue mayor en niños con infección amigdalar que en la hipertrofia, ello no se correlacionó significativamente con el valor amigdalar de la enzima (R2=0,2276), por lo que no se le puede aceptar un valor indicativo de padecimiento amigdalar y eventualmente de amigdalectomía.

Abstract

The antioxidant effect of superoxido dismutase in saliva was measured in children bearing of tonsillar hypertrophy, recidivant tonsillitis or peritonsillar abscess. These levels were compared to those detected on tonsillar tissue obtained from tonsillectomy (p < 0,001). Although salivary SOD concentration in children with tonsillar infection was higher than hypert r o p h y, there was not a significative correlation to tonsillar value of the enzyme (R2=0,2276), so we can not accept a predictive value for salivary SOD of tonsillar suffering and, eventually, of tonsillectomy.
