The resummation technique of Braaten and Pisarski is used for a complete calculation of the {alpha}{sup 2}{alpha}{sub s} contribution to the production rate of dileptons with energy E{gt}T and invariant mass M{approx_lt}T from a quark-gluon plasma. In particular the cancellation of the infrared singularity by medium effects is discussed in detail. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}
