Abstract

A study is presented of 17 patients--9 with myasthenia, 8 with the Guillain--Barré syndrome. The complex treatment program of intensive therapy and reanimation included in all patients the operation of extracorporal heterospleen. Forty-one perfusions were carried out. The operation of splenic sorption allowed to reduce treatment time under conditions of intensive care and reanimation 1.5 times, lethality--by 33%. Employment of biological sorption in patients with such immunoneurological diseases as myasthenia and the Guillain--Barré syndrome removes the humoral autoallergic factor and, thus, favours restoration of nervous system function.
