The cardiac function of an adult patient with fulminant myocarditis requiring a mechanical circulatory support was improved, along with the suppressed release of inflammatory mediators, after intravenous infusion with high-dose immunoglobulin. This therapy may have immunomodulatory effects and serve as a potential adjunctive therapy for patients with fulminant myocarditis. (Jpn Circ J 1998; 62: 871 - 872)
