In a 61-year-old woman recurrent bacterial infections were caused by immune neutropenia which was resistant to high-dose cortisone and plasmapheresis. However, high-dose intravenous 7S-immunoglobulin therapy (30 g for 6 days) induced a long-term remission for 35 months. This treatment modality is safe and should be used as a first-line agent.
