An immunoglobulin preparation for i.v. administration, Ivega (Imuna) was administered to 14 patients, 0.4 g/kg on five consecutive days, but also in lower doses. In all investigated patients a rapid onset of the therapeutic effect was observed--regression of haemorrhage and in 11 a concurrent rise of thrombocytes from a mean value of 20.10(9)/l to mean values of 130.10(9)/l with a maximum between the 6th and 14th day after administration. The tolerance of treatment was satisfactory and no side-effects were observed.
