Abstract

Background: The outcome of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) for patients with severe aplastic anemia (SAA) in Seoul National University Hospital was analyzed retrospectively.
Methods: Between January, 1990 and March, 1999, 25 patients with SAA underwent HSCT. Their medical records were reviewed. Statistical analyses were done about survival and complication after HSCT.
Results: The median age of patients was 22(range, 14∼43) and male to female ratio was 18 : 7. Twenty two were HLA matched non- identical siblings. Three were one identical twin, one one-locus mismatched father and one HLA matched unrelated
donor, respectively. Conditioning regimens were CY/TLI (cyclophosphamide, total lymphoid irradiation) for 18 patients, CY/ATG (CY, antithymocyte globulin) for 3, CY/ buffy (CY, unirradiated buffy- coat) for 2, CY/ ATG/TLI for 1, BU/CY (busulfan, CY) for
1. For prophylaxis of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), cyclosporine and methotrexate were used in all patients except for identical twin. The median nucleated cell dose given to patients was 4.5×108/㎏ (range, 2.0∼5.9). All evaluable
patients achieved absolute neutrophil count of 500/㎕ after median 17 days of HSCT (range, 12∼27) and untransfused platelet count over 20,000/㎕ after median 21 days of HSCT (range, 13∼67). Six patients (24%, grade Ⅰ : 3, Ⅱ : 1, Ⅲ : 1, Ⅳ : 1)
developed acute GVHD and 8 (32%, limited : 4, extensive : 4) developed chronic GVHD. Hepatic venoocclusive disease (VOD) occurred in 2 patients (8%). Rejection occured in 4 patients (16 %), but among 22 allogeneic transplant recipients from HLA matched
siblings, only one (5%) lost graft. After a median follow-up of 32 months (range 9∼120 months), 5 year overall survival of all patients was 87%, and that of 22 allogeneic recipients from HLA matched sibling donors was 95%. Four patients (16%) died.
Causes of death were VOD in one case, rejection with pneumonia one, acute GVHD one. One died from traffic accident in a cured state.
Conclusion: Experiences from our center suggest that HSCT is an effective treatment for patients with severe aplastic anemia. Long- termsurvival is especially excellent for patients who have matched related donors.
