To study the characteristic features of the cellular composition of blood in patients with acute purulent odontogenic ostitis of the jaw. Material and methods: The data obtained during the examination and treatment of 42 patients with acute purulent odontogenic ostitis at the age of 7 to 9 years, who applied to the TGSI clinic, were studied. Results: In the patients, the indices of the red part of the blood were significantly lower than in the comparison group. A low level of hemoglobin can cause hemic tissue hypoxia and affect the state of the acid-base state of the blood, expressed in the form of acidosis, which activates anaerobic glycolysis. An increase in the level of lactic acid in cells can be one of the reasons for the disruption of local microcirculationand the accumulation of endogenous toxins. Conclusions: This pathology is accompanied by a shift in the indicators of the white part of the blood, the observed hemic hypoxia leads to an increase in the level of lactic acid in the cells, which may be one of the reasons for the disruption of local microcirculation and the accumulation of endogenous toxins.
