Transplantation procedure: The transplantation procedure is relatively straightforward. Patients are given high doses of chemotherapy and/or total body irradiation. The marrow is then aspirated from the iliac crests of an HLA-compatible donor and infused IV into the patient. Patients are severely pancytopenic until engraftment, usually within 2 to 3 wk after reinfusion of the marrow. |
