  • Title: [Value of plasma exchange in neurologic complications of acute disseminated lupus erythematosus in children].
    Author: Couillault G, Gouyon JB, Chalopin JM, Rifle G, Nivelon JL.
    Journal: Arch Fr Pediatr; 1985 Jan; 42(1):41-3. PubMed ID: 3872647.
    Abstract:
    The case reported concerns a child presenting with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with acute neurological symptoms who improved after plasma exchanges. The value of plasma exchange in patients with SLE remains unclear. It seems to be useful for acute and severe neurological impairments in patients already receiving high dose corticosteroid therapy.
