  • Title: Flare of arthritis with successful treatment of Felty's syndrome with granulocyte colony stimulating factor (GCSF).
    Author: Hayat SQ, Hearth-Holmes M, Wolf RE.
    Journal: Clin Rheumatol; 1995 Mar; 14(2):211-2. PubMed ID: 7540528.
    Abstract:
    A 58-year-old white male with Felty's syndrome was successfully treated with granulocyte colony stimulating factor (GCSF). GCSF can correct the granulocytopenia of Felty's syndrome and may be a beneficial therapeutic adjunct in patients who have serious infections associated with neutropenia. The patient developed a flare of arthritis concomitant with increased circulating neutrophils following GCSF therapy.
