Microlymphohemocirculatory bed and leucocytogram of gingival tissue were studied by the light microscopy in patients with chronic periodontitis having normal and high arterial blood pressure. In most cases of arterial hypertension the gingival mucous was characterized by widening of lymphatic vessels and interstitial spaces. In cases of arterial hypertension combination with inflammatory reaction the tendency for widening of lymphatic vessels and interstitial spaces persisted compared with cases of normal blood pressure. It testifies to high probability of lymphogenic generalization of inflammation. Besides, in cases of inflammatory gingival pathology in arterial hypertension the absolute neutrophil number was significantly higher showing for more acute inflammatory process and greater volume of tissue involvement.
