چکیده

Infections occurring 6 mo or later after bone marrow transplantation for severe aplastic anemia or hematologic malignancy were analyzed in 98 long-term survivors. Vancella-zoster (VZ) infections were analyzed separately from all other infections. The factcr predisposing most strongly to late VZ infection was genotypic nonidentity for HIA between marrow donor and recipient. There was a suggestion that chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) associated with the presence of nonspecific suppressor cells also predisposed to late VZ infection. while age less than 1 0 yr was protective against such infections.
