Title: GM-CSF and G-CSF in Felty's syndrome. Author: Wagner DR, Combe C, Gresser U. Journal: Clin Investig; 1993 Feb; 71(2):168-71. PubMed ID: 7681711. Abstract: The risk of infection is increased in patients with Felty's syndrome, neutropenia being one of the main reasons for the susceptibility to infection. We report the case of a 56-year-old patient with Felty's syndrome in whom successive therapy with GM-CSF, splenectomy, and G-CSF was tried because of recurrent severe infections. Therapy with GM-CSF and G-CSF resulted in improvement of neutropenia and in successful treatment of cutaneous and pulmonary infections.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
