[Management of patients developing acute gastro-intestinal graft-versus-host-disease: Guidelines from the Francophone Society of Bone Marrow Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (SFGM-TC)].

Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is the most common complication after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) with a frequency range of 30% to 50%. GVH is the leading cause of non-relapse-related deaths and a cause early mortality. Gastro-intestinal (GI) GVH results in digestive manifestations that involve the small intestine and the colon.

[Oral feeding of patient hospitalized for allogeneic stem cells transplantation: Guidelines from the Francophone Society of Bone Marrow Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (SFGM-TC)].

Given the absence of consensus on oral feeding of patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic transplantation, the ninth workshops of practice harmonization of the Francophone Society of Bone Marrow Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (SFGM-TC) allocated one session to address this topic, especially during the hospitalization. A questionnaire was sent to all SFGM-TC pediatric and adult centers in order to investigate oral feeding practices. The results demonstrated a large disparity among centers regarding oral feeding.
