60 AUXOLOGICAL FOLLOW-UP OF 32 PATIENTS AFTER BONE MARROW TRANSPLANTATION (BMT) BEFORE 14 YEARS OF LIFE

Long-term effects of BMT during childhood are still to be defined according to the type of BMT (ALLO BMT versus AUTO BMT), the type of preparation regimens (Total Body Irradiation: TBI. Total Lymphoid Irradiation:TLI) and the possible Graft vs Host Disease (GVH). 32 patients (21 B, 11 G) have been followed up for at least one year after transplantation (Leukaemia:21, Lymphoma:3, Tumors:3, Aplastic aneamia:2, Metabolic:3). 11 have been previously given cerebral irradiation (CR). Age at the BMT was 6.7 y (0.4-13.5 y). 20 received ALLO BMT and 12 AUTO BMT. Auxological evaluation was performed at 1 year for all, at 2 in 21 and at 3 in 8. Results are summarized in the table (in SOS according to SEMPE)
