The Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal

Abstract

Nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infections are rarely diagnosed in hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) recipients. We describe a case of disseminated Mycobacterium avium complex with gastrointestinal tract involvement in a HSCT recipient. We reviewed NTM infections among pediatric HSCT patients at our institution from 2000-2004 and identified 2 additional cases. Fourteen published case reports of NTM disease in children are reviewed.

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.

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.
