BAZAN-RUIZ, Susy; ARANDA, Lourdes and WONG, Alfredo. Autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation experience in patients with diffuse cutaneous systemic scleroderma. Rev. Cuerpo Med. HNAAA [online]. 2021, vol.14, n.4, pp.583-585. Epub Dec 29, 2021. ISSN 2225-5109. http://dx.doi.org/10.35434/rcmhnaaa.2021.144.1466.
Introduction:
The progression of systemic sclerosis leads to an increase in morbidity and mortality.
Clinical Case:
Three patients with a diagnosis of systemic scleroderma who underwent autologous transplantation (2015-2020), after multiple treatments, relapsed at 9 months.
Conclusions:
Autologous Transplantation should be considered as one of the treatment options in patients without high accumulated doses of cyclophosphamide or in early stages of disease.
