| Popis: |
We report three cases of leg ulcers complicating cryoglobulinaemia which resisted conventional therapy but responded to interferon-2 alpha. All three cases improved with the complete resolution of painful vasculitic lesions and healing of deep ulcers. The dose of interferon to produce ulcer healing was determined by individual response with escalation of the daily dose to 4.5 x 10(6) units per day required in one case. A lower dose of maintenance interferon could be used to prevent subsequent relapses of disease. |
