    Author: Brücker R, Schlumpf U.
    Journal: Praxis (Bern 1994); 1996 Apr 16; 85(16):534-40. PubMed ID: 8657998.
    Abstract:
    Felty's syndrome is a rare but serious extra-articular manifestation of rheumatoid arthritis. Morbidity as well as mortality are increased on account of greater susceptibility to infectious agents. We report on two patients suffering from Felty's syndrome who were successfully treated by cyclophosphamide. A review of the literature with special regard to treatment of Felty's syndrome is given.
