[Hemosorption in the intensive therapy of agranulocytosis].

The authors describe a case of successful treatment of medicamentous agranulocytosis (induced by mercasolyl) using hemoperfusion, an extracorporeal method for the treatment of intoxications. In the severe total intoxication syndrome, application of hemoperfusion in multimodality therapy of myelotoxic agranulocytosis improves the disease prognosis.
