To assess the effect of the catgut dressing in trophic ulcers of the lower extremities upon the dynamics of non-specific immunological reactivity the authors defined the complementary activity of the serum, concentration of the serumal lysozyme and contents of thermolabile inhibitors of the serum. The clinical and laboratory findings prove that the use of the cargut dressing in trophic ulcers of the lower extremities increases the level of non-specific immunological reactivity of an organism. The use of catgut for the therapeutic purposes stimulates the condition of natural immunity which constitutes one of the causes contributing to a favourable course of the healing processes.
