Abstract
|
|
|
|
Autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is an effective treatment for patients with relapsed or high-risk Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL). HSCT fundamentally interferes with the immune system. As a consequence, development of autoimmunity after HSCT has been observed during the past several decades. Most evidence is derived from single case reports or studies on small series of patients who developed novel-onset autoimmune diseases after use of HSCT to treat various conditions. We treated 3 NHL patients with autoimmune disease among 54 NHL patients who received high-dose chemotherapy and autologous HSCT.
