Mucositis after reduced intensity conditioning and allogeneic stem cell transplantation.

Background: Therapyrelated mucositis is associated with considerable morbidity. This complication following allogeneic stem cell therapy (alloSCT) is less severe after reduced intense conditioning (RIC); however, even here it may be serious.

Methods: 52 patients (male: n = 35 (67%), female: n = 17 (33%)) at a median age of 62 years (35-73 years) underwent alloSCT after RIC.
