[PAGID] intraventricular IVIG

[Church, Joseph]

The only medication that had been proposed for enteroviral infection was
pleconaril, but I don't know if it is available anywhere.  We have not
used intraventricular IVIG.

Dear all,

 

I have a 20 year-old agammagloulinemia pt who came down with chronic
enterovirus meningoencephalitis. 

The pt has been on multiple antibiotics, dexamethasone, and Tb
medication already several months...in other hospital. 

 

Anybody has an advice on intraventricular IVIG?  how about antiviral
agent? Thanks in advance
