[Outcomes of alternative donor allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for Fanconi anemia: a five cases report].

Five patients with Fanconi anemia who received hematopoietic cell transplantation were retrospectively analyzed. The conditioning regimens included fludarabine, cyclophosphamide and anti-thymocyte globulin. Two patients received both bone marrow and peripheral blood stem cells as the source of stem cell grafts from haploidentical matched related donors, while the others received peripheral blood stem cells from unrelated donors. All patients tolerated well and reached hematopoietic reconstitution. One patient died of intracranial infection. During follow-up, 4 patients survived independent of transfusion with full donor chimerism.
