title: [Results in the treatment of immune thrombocytolytic purpura (ITP)].
abstract: The late results in the treatment of 43 patients (adults) with chronic idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) are represented. Steroid treatment proved to be excellent and well-efficient in 20% of all cases and splenectomy in 70% of all cases. The good, but temporary increase of thrombocytes observed after the preceding steroid medication and the thrombocytosis after splenectomy can be explained as a favourable prognostic sign for a lasting success after the operation.
