RESUMO
Information has been collected on 10 patients, 9 with marrow depression and 1 in whom the diagnosis was presumed. Six of the 10 patients died. The sequentially recorded blood counts on at least 5 of the patients showed a downward trend of the white cell and platelet counts while D-penicillamine was still being administered. One patient suddenly developed leucopenia and thrombocytopenia with a streptococcal septicaemia.
