Granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) in neonatal neutropenia.

M Ray1, K Mukhopadhyay, A Narang.   

Abstract

Neutropenia in neonates is often associated with sepsis, prematurity and maternal hypertension with increased risk of mortality. We describe two neonates with neutropenia treated with granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor. The total and absolute neutrophil counts showed a marked response and led to a favourable outcome. Human granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor may be used as an adjuvant therapy for neonatal neutropenia of different aetiologies.
