title: [The use of hemosorption in leptospirosis patients with pronounced thrombocytopenia].
abstract: The authors describe a rare case from the clinical practice. Treatment including hemosorption was employed in a 38-year-old with a severe form of icterohemorrhagic leptospirosis accompanied by acute reno-hepatic failure and pronounced thrombocytopenia--15 x 10(9)l. The relative significance of thrombocytopenia as one of the main contraindication to hemosorption is suggested.
