“…A newly developed, fully automatic cell separator AS 104 (Fresenius Co., Oberursel, Germany) is useful for the collection of PBSC (4)(5)(6)(7). However, we were not able to collect adequate grafts from CML patients with high numbers of platelets because these platelets formed a thick layer that interfered with the red cell interface sensor of the machine.…”

“…In recent years, autologous PBSC transplantation has been described as a procedure with some advantages over autologous bone marrow transplantation after ablative che motherapy or radiotherapy [1]. Probably, there are two fac tors which condition a good recovery after autologous PBSC transplantation: the number and the quality of the cells collected.…”

“…In the last few years, re-infusion of autologous periph eral blood stem cells (PBSCs) has been used as an alterna tive procedure to obtain bone marrow reconstitution after ablative chemotherapy [1], Some investigators have found Cell numbers expressed in cells x 10'Vl. MM = Multiple myeloma; HD = Hodgkin's disease; NHL = non-Hodgkin's lymphoma; PR = partial remission; CR = complete remission.…”

“…Fever, occurring in all patients and lasting 3 to 9 days, and I-II WHO mucositis, occurring in eight patients, were the only early complications. All patients reached myeloid engraftment at 13 days (range, [11][12][13][14][15][16] and platelet engraftment at 27 days (range, 13-49) after infusion, with no need for any back-up infusion. At a median time of 9 days (range, 12-34), nine patients developed an 'engraftment syndrome', consisting of diffuse skin erythema, possibly associated with fever, 25 which required treatment with steroids for a median of 26 days (range, 9-47).…”

“…Once a threshold of 0.05 × 10 9 CD34 + cells/l was reached, the leukapheresis was performed through a central venous catheter and a temporary peripheral vein access, by means of a continuous flow cell separator (COBE Spectra, Lakewood, CO, USA), and approximately 2.5 patient-blood volumes were processed to obtain at least 5 × 10 6 CD34 + cell/kg; if necessary, a second leukapheresis was performed the following day. 13 In order to prevent clotting, ACD was used at a ratio of 1:12 for children weighing 25 kg or more; for children under 25 kg, 1:16 ACD combined with heparin 50 U/kg was used, and the separator was initialized with a compatible filtered and irradiated RBC unit, suspended in albumin, up to the patient's hematocrit, to avoid transient hypovolemia, due to the volume sequestered in the separator.…”
