Clinical impact of colonization with multidrug‐resistant organisms on outcome after allogeneic stem cell transplantation in patients with acute myeloid leukemia
28 Sept 2017
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is a curative treatment option for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). During transplantation, patients undergo a period of severe neutropenia, which puts them at high risk for infectious complications.
