The developments of peripheral blood stem cells in autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HCT), and of reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens in allogeneic HCT (allo-HCT), have considerably changed the transplant approach. Prolonged neutropenia combined with severe mucosal damage and organ dysfunction is no longer the rule in the early post-HCT pancytopenic phase. Although strict isolation during pancytopenia was followed by most HCT units in the past, this may not be the current practice.

Abstract: | The developments of peripheral blood stem cells in autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HCT), and of reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens in allogeneic HCT (allo-HCT), have considerably changed the transplant approach. Prolonged neutropenia combined with severe mucosal damage and organ dysfunction is no longer the rule in the early post-HCT pancytopenic phase. Although strict isolation during pancytopenia was followed by most HCT units in the past, this may not be the current practice. |
