Abstract

Myelofibrosis is a Philadelphia chromosome-negative myeloproliferative neoplasm characterized by marrow fibrosis, splenomegaly with cytopenias, constitutional symptoms and poor quality of life. Rates of graft failure following allogeneic stem cell transplantation range from 0 to 5%, being more frequent in non-HLA identical donors. Here we present an infrequent complication, a graft failure in a patient following identical sibling donor stem cell transplantation for myelofibrosis with objective indicators of disease remission. J Med Cases. 2014;5(2):76-79 doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.14740/jmc1639w
