The levels of IgA, IgM and IgG were determined by the method of Mancini in 72 cases of ischaemic brain strokes. Different immunoglobulin fractions showed different changes. The highest IgA level was observed in the first week after the onset of the disease, while that of IgM was highest between the 4th and the 6th weeks of the disease. IgG values were not different from those in controls. Besides laboratory investigations the material was analysed from the standpoint of clinical manifestations, location of lesions and outcome of the disease.
