[Importance of immunotherapy in the management of patients with acute staphylococcal lactation mastitis].

Failure of antibiotic therapy against the background of sharply decreased defensive forces of the organism in the postpartum period made it necessary to perform a comparative clinical evaluation of the effect of homologous and heterologous gamma globulins. It has been established that treatment with these drugs results in normalization of clinical and immunological signs which are retained till the complete recovery of patients.

[Heterologous antistaphylococcal gamma-globulin in the treatment of staphylococcal sepsis].

The first experience with the immunotherapy of staphylococcal sepsis with heterologous anti-staphylococcal gamma-globulin (cozym) with a high antitoxin titer--above 200 A. E./ml--is generalized in the article.

[Use of heterologous antistaphylococcal gamma-globulin in treating suppurative mastitis].

The effectiveness of heterologic antistaphylococcal gammaglobulin was studied in the clinic in 67 cases of acute lactogenous mastitis. The activity of the preparation was 200 A. E/ml.
