We report a very rapid engraftment after reinfusion of bone marrow cells derived from 'G-CSF-primed bone marrow' in a small child. As the hemopoietic recovery was equal to that seen after PBSCT, we suggest that the use of 'mobilized bone marrow' is a good alternative for PBSCT in children if contraindications to the collection of PBSCT are present.

D016179 Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor A glycoprotein of MW 25 kDa containing internal disulfide bonds. It induces the survival, proliferation, and differentiation of neutrophilic granulocyte precursor cells and functionally activates mature blood neutrophils. Among the family of colony-stimulating factors, G-CSF is the most potent inducer of terminal differentiation to granulocytes and macrophages of leukemic myeloid cell lines.
