Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality of adults worldwide. The aim of research was to study the microbiota of mucosa of upper respiratory tract (URT) in patients with COPD. St pyogenes was found significantly more frequent in patients with stable COPD and in patients with COPD exacerbation, and yeast-like С. аlbicans — in patients with COPD exacerbation. In patients with COPD, pathological processes were registered more frequently in pharynx and larynx. Bacterial flora of URT can dynamically and constantly change, thus there is a need for constant monitoring of epidemiologically significant microorganisms.
Key words: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, bacterial flora, mucosa of upper respiratory tract.
