Treatment of Guillain-Barré syndrome with high-dose gammaglobulin.

R P Kleyweg1, F G van der Meché, J Meulstee.   

Abstract

Intravenous gammaglobulin (IVGG) can improve the clinical course of several immune-mediated diseases. We report the first results of such treatment in eight patients with severe Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS). We observed that IVGG was beneficial in at least some of the patients with severe GBS. These results should be confirmed in a randomized trial.
