The first International Meeting on Apheresis was held in Dyon in 1984. At the congress it became clear that both the technical and therapeutic sides developed very rapidly and it appeared fruitful to bring together the investigators of the different countries working in the areas. At that time immunology had come to pervade many clinical specialities, and hemapheresis, especially plasmapheresis was considered a therapeutic tool in many immunological diseases which hitherto had proved to be fatal. New methods to identify certain antibodies and circulating immune complexes in the serum and the possibilities to remove them from the blood by several techniques (filtration, centrifugation, immuno...
Apheresis provides a comprehensive, state-of-the-art review of the applications of apheresis in treating neurologic, hematologic, hepatic and nephrologic disorders. The book deals with the basic science, pathophysiology and role of plasma exchange in treating such disorders as: collagen vascular disease, hypercholesterolemia, demyelating neurologic diseases, myasthenia gravis, multiple sclerosis, glomerulohephritis, myeloma renal failure, vasculitis, fulminant hepatitis, thrombotic angiopathies and acute hepatic failure. The text addresses the various methods and possible complications of plasma exchange and stem cell collection. It offers full coverage of platelet allo-immunization and bone marrow transplantation. The book also explains the specific requirements involved in pediatric apheresis and donor recruitment.
First multi-year cumulation covers six years: 1965-70.

We are pleased to present our readers the Proceedings of the International Symposium "New Perspectives in Hemodialysis, Peritoneal Dialysis, Arteriovenous Hemofiltration, and Plasma pheresis" which was held in Freiburg i. Br. (FRG) during Oct tober 6-8, 1988. The meeting was held on the occasion of opening the new dialysis unit of the University Hospital of Freiburg i. Br .. The topics discussed included membrane biocompatibility, catabolic factors associated with dialysis therapy, phar macological therapy in dialyzed patients, erythropoietin and renal anemia, new developments in CAVH, CAPD and plasmapheresis, renal replacement therapy in acute renal failure, and plasmapheresis therapy in sy...
