Abstract
Despite the rapidly evolving treatment landscape for acute myeloid leukemia (AML), allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) remains an important and potentially curative treatment option for many high-risk AML patients. Cardiovascular disease is an important competing risk throughout allo-HCT and a key driver of morbidity and mortality long after treatment. Cardio-oncology is a new discipline in cardiology which provides multidisciplinary care and expertise to complex cancer patients with the aims of optimizing cardiovascular health plus monitoring and treating potential cardiotoxicity related to cancer treatments. As allogeneic HCT techniques get more sophisticated there will be an increase in transplant eligible older patients with a rise in comorbidities including established cardiovascular disease highlighting the need for close collaboration with cardio-oncology specialists from the time of diagnosis through late survivorship.
期刊介绍:
Best Practice & Research Clinical Haematology publishes review articles integrating the results from the latest original research articles into practical, evidence-based review articles. These articles seek to address the key clinical issues of diagnosis, treatment and patient management. Each issue follows a problem-orientated approach which focuses on the key questions to be addressed, clearly defining what is known and not known, covering the spectrum of clinical and laboratory haematological practice and research. Although most reviews are invited, the Editor welcomes suggestions from potential authors.
