Long-term plateletpheresis in the management of primary thrombocytosis.
We attempted to control the platelet count of a patient with primary thrombocytosis utilizing long-term plateletpheresis therapy. The patient previously could not be controlled with chemotherapy, because of rapid development of leukopenia. Although intensive pheresis at the rate of four to five procedures per week produced rapid lowering of the patient's platelet count, continued therapy at the rate of two to three procedures a week failed to maintain these counts, and platelets gradually rose to pretreatment levels. We conclude that while plateletpheresis can produce acute lowering of elevated platelet counts, the rate of platelet production in primary thrombocytosis may be too rapid to allow for long-term control by pheresis alone, utilizing an acceptable treatment schedule of one of three procedures per week.

A study of alleged leprosy bacillus strain HI-75.
Subcultures of strain HI-75 of Skinsnes leprosy bacillus received in Antwerp and London have been studied bacteriologically and compared. Both contained moderately large acid-fast bacilli readily subcultured and maintained on ordinary mycobacteriologic media. These organisms were found to be a variety of Mycobacterium marianum (syn. serofulaceum) and were considered likely to be a laboratory contaminant. The earlier subculture studied also contained numbers of a much smaller mycobacterium (of a similar size to M. leprae) which appeared to be dead and which did not grow on the ordinary media. Skin tests and immunodiffusion analyses performed with extracts of the earlier subculture failed to demonstrate the presence of the specific antigens of leprosy bacilli. Similar studies on other cultures of Skinsnes bacillus must be performed to confirm or refute its identity as M. leprae.
