A three-year-old girl developed rapidly progressing respiratory distress associated with fever and cytopenia after the completion of induction chemotherapy for acute lymphoblastic leukemia. A chest X-ray film was typical of cytomegalovirus (CMV) pneumonitis and the serial serological evaluations confirmed the infection. The patient did not show any response to the conventional intravenous immunoglobulin therapy and the condition deteriorated. Remarkable response, however, followed the subsequent administration of CMV immune globulin preparation and the patient recovered completely from the disease. This case illustrates the clinical value of the selective use of hyperimmune globulin preparations in the treatment of severe infections in immunocompromised children.
