We report five consecutive patients with CAMT who received MAC and partially HLA-mismatched, UCBT (unrelated, n = 4). Median times to neutrophil (>500/μL) and platelet (≥20 000 and ≥50 000/μL) engraftment were 19, 57, and 70 days, respectively. Acute GvHD, grade II, developed in one patient, who subsequently developed limited chronic GvHD. At median follow-up of 14 yr, all patients are alive with sustained donor cell engraftment. To our knowledge, this is the largest single-center series of UCBT for patients with this disease and suggests that UCBT is a successful curative option for patients with CAMT.HumansThrombocytopeniaGraft vs Host DiseaseTreatment OutcomeTransplantation ConditioningCord Blood Stem Cell TransplantationFollow-Up StudiesAdolescentChildChild, PreschoolInfantInfant, NewbornFemaleMaleCongenital Bone Marrow Failure SyndromesDurable engraftment and correction of hematological abnormalities in children with congenital amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia following myeloablative umbilical cord blood transplantation.Journal article2022-03-23
