Abstract
Conventional approaches to the treatment of recurrent mantle cell lymp homa (MCL) yield unsatisfactory results. We describe a patient with re current MCL in leukemic phase refractory to chemotherapy who was succe ssfully treated with allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. At last f ollow-up 1 year post-transplant, the patient was in complete remission and had limited chronic graft-versus-host disease.
