Morbilliform eruptions occur frequently in the hematopoietic transplant population. The differential diagnosis includes drug reaction, viral exanthem, and cutaneous graft versus host disease. Using a typical patient case, we discuss the diagnostic approach to this clinical problem.

An adolescent girl with acute myeloid leukaemia underwent chemotherapy followed by haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Post-HSCT, she developed oral chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGvHD), which was successfully treated. Twenty months later, she was referred to the gynaecology department for evaluation of secondary amenorrhoea.

Myelodysplastic syndromes/neoplasms (MDS) are a widely heterogenous group of myeloid malignancies characterized by morphologic dysplasia, a defective hematopoiesis, and recurrent genetic abnormalities. The original and revised International Prognostic Scoring Systems (IPSS) have been used to risk-stratify patients with MDS to guide treatment strategies. In higher-risk MDS, the therapeutic approach is geared toward delaying leukemic transformation and prolonging survival.

In unrelated allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT), older and/or HLA-mismatched donors are known risk factors for survival outcomes. In healthy individuals, cytomegalovirus (CMV) seropositivity is associated with impaired adaptive immune systems. We assessed whether the adverse effects of donor risk factors are influenced by the donor CMV serostatus.

Background: The management of pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is based on the prognostic risk classification of initial leukemia. Targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) is a reliable method used to identify recurrently mutated genes of pediatric AML and associated prognosis.

Methods: In this study, we retrospectively evaluated the prognostic, and therapeutic utility of a targeted NGS panel covering twenty-five genes, in 21 children with de novo and 8 with relapsed or secondary AML.
