Abstract
Pulmonary complications after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) significantly contribute to morbidity and mortality. We analyzed 207 patients receiving allo-SCT at our institution between 1998 and 2005 for the development of restrictive (PRC) and obstructive (POC) pulmonary function changes. Pulmonary function tests (PFT) were performed before and routinely every 3 to 6 months after allo-SCT. After follow-up >2 years, PFTs were obtained yearly. 142 patients were included according to the availability of PFTs; 65 patients were excluded due to early mortality and/or the lack of PFT data.
