title: [Immunomodulation by intravenous gamma globulin?].
abstract: The continuous improvement of gammaglobulin preparations for intravenous use has lead to new potential therapeutic applications no longer based on the substitution of lacking specific antibodies. Especially high-dose administration may exert positive influences on pathologically altered immune functions. The theoretical basis and clinical facts are discussed.
