This new book provides cutting edge information for transplantation in lymphoma from a clinical perspective. With 26 chapters and over 50 international contributors this title offers a single reference for physicians on how to integrate, transplantation and novel therapies in patients with lymphoid malignancies.
Section one provides an overview of transplantation in lymphoma, including the historical perspective, role of lymphoma working committees, current use of transplantation in children and adults, the variety of conditioning regimens for auto and allo-HSCT, pre-transplant evaluation, stem cell mobilizations, donor search for patients needing allo-HSCT, and management of long term complications after HSCT for lymphomas. Section two covers management of the lymphoid malignancies, focusing on standard of care transplant management, timing and preparing patients for transplantation, management of post- transplant relapses and most importantly discussion on novel therapies and their integration in transplantation for lymphomas.
The appendices provide a quick reference checklist on follow-up after autologous and allogenic stem cell transplantation in lymphoma.
