Abstract

A 46 year old woman suffers from chronic progressive multiple sclerosis. She was diagnosed in 1993. Because of many complications seen in conservative treatment, plasma exchange was started. The expanded disability status scale by Kurtzke could be improved but the interval between the treatments became shorter and shorter. It was therefore decided to commence protein A immunoadsorption treatment. With this treatment the patient shows good and stable improvement in neurological and functional status with an acceptable treatment frequency of once every 3 weeks.
