- Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation offers the chance of cure for myelodysplastic syndrome, myeloproliferative neoplasms and most adult acute leukemia and relapsed lymphoma
- Optimal care after transplant involves a collaboration among the SCT centre, the primary care provider and the patient
- Compared with the general population, SCT recipients have 4 times the risk of CVD
- As a result of prior therapy, SCT recipients have up to 5 times the risk of a secondary malignancy compared with the general population
- Prior immunity is lost after transplant, and revaccination is necessary from 3 months after the procedure
