摘要

Purpose Approximately 5-20% of patients can develop extramedullary (EM) relapse after total body irradiation (TBI) containing hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT). While total marrow and lymphoid irradiation (TMLI) provides a more conformally targeted radiotherapy for patients, organ sparing has the potential to place the patient at a higher risk for EM relapse compared to TBI. This study evaluates EM relapse in patients treated with TMLI at our institution.
