Severe rotavirus-associated diarrhoea following bone marrow transplantation: treatment with oral immunoglobulin.

E J Kanfer1, G Abrahamson, J Taylor, J C Coleman, D M Samson.   

Abstract

Two patients developed acute severe rotavirus-associated diarrhoea following BMT. Both received treatment with oral immunoglobulin and in each case the diarrhoea substantially resolved within 3 days, and rotavirus became undetectable in their stool. Oral immunoglobulin may be a useful therapy for rotavirus gastroenteritis post-BMT.
