[Management of endocrine dysfunctions after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: a report of the SFGM-TC on adrenal insufficiency and osteoporosis]

Abstract

In the attempt to harmonize clinical practices between different French transplantation centers, the French Society of Bone Marrow Transplantation and Cell Therapy (SFGM-TC) set up the third annual series of workshops which brought together practitioners from all member centers and took place in October 2012 in Lille. Here we report our results and recommendations regarding the management of short and long-term endocrine dysfunction following allogeneic stem cell transplantation. The key aim of this workshop was to give an overview on secondary adrenal insufficiency and osteoporosis post-transplant.
