[The use of therapeutic plasmapheresis in the combined therapy of a female patient with idiopathic hemochromatosis].
A patient with idiopathic hemochromatosis has been followed-up for a long time. Methods decreasing serum iron content were used in succession. Five courses of plasmapheresis were administered. The level of serum iron normalized after each course consisting of 3-4 sessions, but the effect was but short-termed. Stable remission could be attained by maintenance desferal therapy after a course of therapeutic plasmapheresis, which can be regarded as a stage in basic therapy for idiopathic hemochromatosis.
