Infection risk factors Pre-engraftment (first three weeks after HSCT) Mucositis and cutaneous damage Mechanisms: disrupt the natural barriers of the skin and mucous membranes Neutropenia Loss of phagocytic function Organ dysfunction Post-engraftment (three weeks to three months after HSCT) Mucositis and cutaneous damage Cellular immune dysfunction Immunomodulating viruses Hyposplenism For allogeneic HSCT recipients, GVHD and its therapy Late post-engraftment (after 3 months post HSCT) Main risk factor GVHD and its therapy. Muco-cutaneous damage (GVHD/) Immunodeficiency (low counting of lymphocyte subpopulations, hypogammaglobulinemia) Hyposplenism 16

Hemorrhagic cystitis Title of the presentation - Author 18
HSCT- Timeline Hemorrhagic cystitis conditioning engraftment Cy-TBI 0 Mucositis Bleeding Infections GVHD HSCT Aplasia GVHD Prophylaxis Early onset may be explained by toxicity of chemo-radiotherapy Cyclofosfamide, Ifosfamide, Busulfan, less common: Etopoxide or TBI Late onset multifactorial viral infections: human polyomavirus type BK or JC, less frequent: Adenovirus type 11 or MCV (exceptional) 19
Hemorrhagic cystitis Incidence: varies from <10% to more than 70%. Characterized by hemorrhagic inflammation of urinary tract mucosa. Symptoms: variable -asymptomatic microscopic hematuria -frank hematuria with clot formation -urinary tract obstruction Prophylaxis: Based on hyper hydration and Mesna administration. Treatment: 1. Forced hydration plus intensive platelet support 2. Bladder irrigation 3. Salvages approaches: selective embolization of bladder arteries, suprapubic catheter, cystoscopy with clot evacuation, fibrin glue, endoscopic laser coagulation Hassan. Pediatr Transpl 2011 20

Early complications of vascular origin 1- Veno-occlusive disease of the liver (VOD) 2- Capillary leak syndrome (CLD) 3- Engraftment syndrome (ES) 4- Diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH) 5- Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) 6- Idiopathic pneumonia syndrome (IPS) 7- Multiple-organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) 22

agvhd 29
Acute GVHD agvhd remains a major complication of HSCT incidence :10 80%, depending upon the risk factors Broad spectrum of clinical manifestations (mild to potentially fatal) Difficult differential diagnosis with other entities (VOD, infections, toxicity, etc Biopsy for histopathological diagnosis is recommended.

Chronic GVHD Immunoregulatory disorder Features of autoimmunity and immunodeficiency. Main cause of late non-relapse morbi-mortality after HSCT Infections (immundeficiency due cgvhd and its therapy). Any organ can be the target of cgvhd. Mechanisms: Autoreactive T-lymphocytes play role B-lymphocyte Risk factors: Older age CMV seropositivity of recipient Splenectomy Prior acute GVHD 33
