Abstract:
A case of Evans' syndrome which was refractory to conventional and high dose steroid treatment and to splenectomy was treated with cyclosporin, beginning with the dose of 10 mg/kg/day and then gradually tapering to 4 mg/kg/day. The patient experienced excellent benefit from cyclosporin; his haematological parameters were completely normal at the 12th month of therapy, without any side effect of the drug.
