In the development of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in children, the premorbid background of the child and the state of the general reactivity of the body play an important role. The course and outcome of a chronic inflammatory process in the lungs largely depends on the state of immunological reactivity. The use of various means aimed at increasing immunity significantly increases the effectiveness of treatment. The studies carried out confirm the significant pathogenetic significance of immunological deficiency in the course of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in children and indicate the need for its correction.
