Efficacy of low-density lipoprotein apheresis in arteriosclerosis obliterans of the lower extremities: two cases with marked alleviation of clinical symptoms.

abstract：BACKGROUND:In organ transplantation, apheresis is frequently used for removal of anti-HLA antibodies. However, it is unclear whether plasmapheresis (PP) or semi-selective immunoadsorption (IA) should be employed, and the optimal number of apheresis sessions required to reach post-treatment objectives is also unknown. ...
