Autologous bone-marrow and peripheral blood buffy coat cell infusion in the treatment of chronic myeloid and acute leukemia. 1979

T Mahmood, and W A Robinson, and M Entringer

Autologous marrow infusion has been attempted in three patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (two in blast crisis, one with severe myelofibrosis and pancytopenia) and one patient with acute lymphatic leukemia. One patient with blast crisis of CML expired prior to marrow infusion. One patient with myelofibrotic phase of CML is alive seven months post marrow infusion. The other two patients expired 6 and 16 days post marrow infusion. Bone-marrow repopulation is feasible in the face of severe myelofibrosis.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007938 Leukemia A progressive, malignant disease of the blood-forming organs, characterized by distorted proliferation and development of leukocytes and their precursors in the blood and bone marrow. Leukemias were originally termed acute or chronic based on life expectancy but now are classified according to cellular maturity. Acute leukemias consist of predominately immature cells; chronic leukemias are composed of more mature cells.
