Abstract
|
|
|
Thrombocytopenia and Coombs¡¯ positive hemolytic anemia (Evans syndrome) after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) rarely occurs, especially in childhood. We experienced a case of Evans syndrome following unmanipulated unrelated bone marrow transplantation, which promptly responded to steroid pulse therapy. Immune-mediated cytopenia should be considered for evaluation of post-engraftment cytopenia following HSCT.
