Brito, Margarida; Sanchez, Pedro; Velho, Sónia; Miranda, Nuno; Leal da Costa, Fernando; Ferreira, Isabelina; Teixeira, Gilda; Guimarães, AntónioHigh dose chemotherapy with autologous stem cell transplantation (HDCT-ASCT) has been administered to patients with high-risk germ cell tumours (GCT). The role of this treatment for GCT still remains unclear, including the identification of subgroups more likely to benefit from such strategy.A retrospective review was conducted of all male patients with gonadal and extra gonadal GCT treated with HDCT-ASCT betwe...
Guidelines for prevention of febrile neutropenia.
Barroso, Sérgio; Damasceno, Margarida; Dinis, José; Gervásio, Helena; da Luz, Ricardo; Passos-Coelho, J L; Sá, Anabela; Costa, Luís; Rodrigues, HelenaNeutropenia and febrile neutropenia are common consequences of some cytotoxic chemotherapy regimens. This situation leads to modifications of the therapeutic regimen, conducting to either dose reduction or cycle delays.

Silva, M R; Unidade de Cuidados Hematológicos Intensivos (UCHI), Instituto Português de Oncologia, Lisboa.; Passos-Coelho, J L; da Costa, F LWe report the results of PBPC collection by large-volume leukaphereses and the hematologic recovery after high-dose chemotherapy supported by autologous PBPC reinfusion in a series of cancer patients treated at the Hematological Intensive Care Unit (UCHI) (Portuguese Institute of Oncology, Lisbon). Large volume leukaphereses were used to increase the efficacy of the PBPC collection. This modification of the sta...

Silva, M R; Unidade de Cuidados Hematológicos Intensivos (UCHI), Instituto Português de Oncologia, Lisboa.; Passos-Coelho, J L; da Costa, F LWe review the rationale for PBPC transplantation and the results reported in the literature. In order to prolong complete remissions and increase cure rates, high-dose chemotherapy is frequently used in the treatment of selected neoplasias. Hematological toxicity can be overcome by the infusion of autologous hemopoietic progenitors. Recently, peripheral blood is being used as the preferred source for hemopoieti...
