Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is a potentially curative treatment for over 70 benign and malignant hematologic and immunological processes. Over the past several decades, significant technological and post-transplant supportive advances have been made, resulting in a decrease in early transplant mortality and continued growth in the population of allo-HSCT survivors. With the expansion in the number of long-term survivors, as well as of those considering a transplant, the focus of transplant medicine has been shifted significantly to include a more prominent role for the care of the 'long-term' survivor. These patients have survived the acute critical phase of transplantation and have potentially achieved remission from their primary disease, yet allo-HSCT patients do not return to pre-transplant health status. For survivors >2 years removed, the time of transplant all-cause mortality is four- to nine-fold higher than age-matched peers within the general population. These patients represent a distinct, high-risk population that must be monitored for long-term transplant complications, including chronic GvHD (cGvHD), multi-organ dysfunctions and secondary malignancies. This article will review in a non-exhaustive manner, the approach to long-term care of an allo-HSCT recipient.
异基因造血干细胞移植(allo-HSCT)是一种对70多种良性和恶性血液及免疫性疾病具有潜在治愈作用的治疗方法。在过去几十年中,技术和移植后支持治疗取得了重大进展,导致早期移植死亡率下降,allo-HSCT幸存者数量持续增加。随着长期幸存者以及考虑进行移植的人数的增加,移植医学的重点已显著转移,将对“长期”幸存者的护理纳入更突出的角色。这些患者已度过移植的急性关键期,可能已从原发性疾病中缓解,但allo-HSCT患者并未恢复到移植前的健康状态。对于移植后超过2年的幸存者,移植后的全因死亡率比普通人群中年龄匹配的同龄人高4至9倍。这些患者是一个独特的高风险人群,必须对其长期移植并发症进行监测,包括慢性移植物抗宿主病(cGvHD)、多器官功能障碍和继发性恶性肿瘤。本文将以非详尽的方式回顾allo-HSCT受者的长期护理方法。
