title: [Treatment of autoimmune thrombocytopenia using intravenous immunoglobulins].
abstract: Long-term clinical research of the i.v. administration of immunoglobulins extended therapeutic possibilities of autoimmune thrombocytopenia. The administration of large doses of i.v. immunoglobulins is an effective and safe method of treatment in particular in patients refractory to steroid treatment or where steroids are contraindicated, in patients where treatment by splenectomy was ineffective and in pregnant women and young children. By more extensive verification of the above therapeutic method it will be possible to obtain more insight into the aetiology and pathogenesis of this disease.
