Abstract

The study illustrated the outcome of allogeneic stem cell transplantation in 26 patients with severe aplastic anemia at National Institute of Hematology and Blood Transfusion from 2017 to 2022. We found that 3-year overall survival was 83,3%, all patients had hematopoietic recovery in which 3/ 26 patients died. The most common complication was infection (96,2%), followed by chronic (38,5%) and acute graft-versus-host disease (23,1%). Various factors were employed on the univariate Cox analysis of survival, in which we found no statistically significant correlation. We conclude that allogeneic stem cell transplantation from a matched related donor with peripheral blood as stem cell source is a highly effective treatment for severe aplastic anemia and should be applied more widely in patients >40 years of age or with poor response to immunosuppressive therapies.
