Bone marrow transplantation for severe aplastic anemia secondary to temozolomide
admin Abstract Radiotherapy (RT) and concomitant/adjuvant therapy with temozolomide (Temodar) is a ordinary communication program for children
and adults with glioma. Although temozolomide is mostly substantially tolerated with temporary myelosuppression as the direct dose-limiting
toxicity, permanent bone-marrow aplasia after communication with temozolomide has been reported. We inform the housing of an adolescent
enduring with a high-grade glioma who, after >2 years of event-free survival, underwent flourishing pearl goody transplantation
for communication of temozolomide-induced nonindulgent aplastic anaemia (SAA).
