Resum
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is an established treatment with a high curative potential for various hematological diseases. Chronic graft-versus-host disease is a major complication of this procedure and is the leading cause of late mortality after transplantation. Bronchiolitis obliterans is a particularly serious complication that occurs in 10-15% of patients with extensive graft-versus-host disease and is often refractory to treatment. If there is no response to conventional immunosuppressive treatment after 3-6 months of treatment, the prognosis of these patients is unfortunate. We report the case of a 57 year old woman diagnosed with a chronic T lymphoproliferative syndrome who developed bronchiolitis obliterans one year after an hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
