Autologous stem cell transplantation as treatment modality in a patient with relapsed pancreatoblastoma

Abstract

Pancreatoblastoma (PB) is a rare malignant neoplasm of the pancreas, which occurs mostly during childhood. Presently, the optimal treatment strategy is neither clear nor uniform for patients in advanced stages, in particular those with metastasis, inoperable, or recurrent tumors. To our knowledge, until now, only one patient with PB has been treated with hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) following aggressive chemotherapy and surgical resection. Here we report the second case of PB who was treated with aggressive chemotherapy combined with autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation.

Blood And Marrow Transplantation

The use of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or blood and marrow transplantation (bmt) is on the increase worldwide. BMT is used to replace damaged or destroyed bone marrow with healthy bone marrow stem cells. Here is the latest research on bone and marrow transplantation.

Allogenic & Autologous Therapies

Allogenic therapies are generated in large batches from unrelated donor tissues such as bone marrow. In contrast, autologous therapies are manufactures as a single lot from the patient being treated. Here is the latest research on allogenic and autologous therapies.
