Abstract:

Aplastic anemia (AA) is a bone marrow hematopoietic failure disorder that is characterized by low bone marrow hematopoiesis, complete blood cytopenia and anemia/hemorrhage/infection syndrome. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is currently an important method in the treatment of severe AA. The occurrence and management of transplant-related complications remain a great clinical challenge, and their prevention and treatment can directly affect the outcome of transplantation, long-term survival and quality of life of the children. In this paper, we review the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of common transplant complications during HSCT in children with AA, with the aim of improving the success rate and survival rate of these transplanted children.

Key words: aplastic anemia, allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, complication, child
