  • Title: [Allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation].
    Author: Harada M.
    Journal: Gan To Kagaku Ryoho; 1996 Dec; 23(14):1877-85. PubMed ID: 8978790.
    Abstract:
    Allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (allo-PBSCT) has been increasingly used as an alternative to allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (allo-BMT). In comparison with allo-BMT, preliminary results indicate that rapid hematopoietic engraftment can be obtained, and there is no increase in the incidence and severity of acute GVHD after allo-PBSCT. Furthermore, general anesthesia is not required to collect a sufficient number of PBSCT, which are usually mobilized by G-CSF administration. Therefore, allo-BMT will be replaced by allo-PBSCT in near future.
