title: [Induction of remission in severe lupus erythematosus by intensified therapy].
abstract: 11 patients with severe SLE were treated with plasmapheresis and subsequent pulse cyclophosphamide. In all patients rapid improvement was observed. After another 6 months of immunosuppression any treatment was withdrawn. The remissions remained stable in 6/8 patients during the follow-up period of 7-33 (mean: 21) months.
