Intravenous pulse methyl prednisolone in the successful treatment of severe sarcoid polyneuropathy with pulmonary
Abstract:
Severe widespread sarcoid polyneuropathy with associated pulmonary involvement was treated successfully in a 26 year old man using "pulse' methyl prednisolone. After he had failed to respond clinically to a two months course of high-dose oral prednisolone, a regimen of intravenous methyl prednisolone 1 g once a week for eight weeks was instituted, along with 10 mg prednisolone orally daily. Neurological improvement began after the third dose with complete remission achieved after the eighth week. More than 12 months after cessation of treatment he remains in good health with no clinical or laboratory evidence of sarcoidosis.
