Autologous stem cell infusion for acute myeloblastic leukemia in an HIV-1 carrier

E Schneider et al. Bone Marrow Transplant. 1997 Oct.

Abstract

We present the case of an asymptomatic HIV carrier, who presented with acute myeloblastic leukemia in third relapse and successfully underwent autologous stem cell transplantation as a rescue treatment. This observation supports the conclusion that tolerance of autologous bone marrow or stem cell transplant in patients with HIV may correlate with a low viral burden and relatively good immune function.
