TL;DR: HSCT showed effectiveness towards brain or heart involvement, when performed before signs of brain atrophy or valvular regurgitation appear, and it is considered HSCT is worthwhile in early stages of the disease for patients with MPS II.
Journal ArticleDOI
High incidence of radiation-induced cavernous hemangioma in long-term survivors who underwent hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with radiation therapy during childhood or adolescence.

TL;DR: Careful and long-term evaluation with MRI, including T2*-weighted imaging, is necessary for HSCT recipients who received radiation therapy before and/or during HSCT.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for inborn errors of metabolism: A report from the Research Committee on Transplantation for Inborn Errors of Metabolism of the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare and the Working Group of the Japan Society for Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report a Japanese registry analysis of HSCT for IEM with improving survival in UCBT, and the difference between RIC and MAC with irradiation was significant (p < 0.03).
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The best practice for a clinician may be to integrate the morphological, cytogenetic, and genetic data to optimize HSCT timing in Japanese FA patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
