Dental manifestations in severe combined immunodeficiency following bone marrow transplantation (original) (raw)

Bone Marrow Transplantation volume 25, pages 1007–1009 (2000)Cite this article

Abstract

Severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) is a rare primary immunodeficiency disorder with an estimated overall frequency of 1 in 75 000 live births. Bone marrow transplantation is the only curative treatment available. Using T cell-depleted HLA non-identical bone marrow requires preconditioning with a short course of cytotoxic chemotherapy. We report severe dental developmental anomalies in three such patients under long-term follow up. Bone Marrow Transplantation (2000) 25, 1007–1009.
