Successful unrelated bone marrow transplantation in a child with chronic granulomatous disease complicated by pulmonary and cerebral granuloma formation
We report on a 6- year- old boy with chronic granulomatous disease ( CGD) complicated by chronic inflammatory reactions with formation of large pulmonary granuloma as well as intracerebral lesions. Bone marrow transplantation ( BMT) from an unrelated donor led to stable reconstitution, to rapid resolution of pulmonary granuloma, and to rapid resolution of intracerebral lesions.
