Abstract

Objective: Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is a treatment with a considerable rate of complete cure in hematological disorders. Hepatic complications are common causes of morbidity and mortality affecting the survival after stem cell transplantation. This study was conducted to identify risk factors for hepatic dysfunction and related potential factors affecting the survival in patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
