The identification of specific genetic mutations can yield important prognostic and therapeutic implications. Herein, we present the diagnosis and successful application of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in a patient with osteopetrosis caused by carbonic anhydrase II deficiency (Intermediate osteopetrosis).\u0000\u0000\u0000CASE PRESENTATION\u0000Herein, we describe a 2.5-year-old male patient born to consanguineous parents who presented at 8-month-old with hydrocephaly, brain shunt, and developmental delay. Later at 9 months old, he was found to have eye disorder such as nystagmus, fracture of the elbow, abnormal skeletal survey, normal cell blood count (CBC), and severe hypocellularity in the bone marrow. Further evaluation showed renal tubular acidosis type 2. Whole-exome sequencing revealed a pathogenic homozygous variant in intron 2 of the carbonic anhydrase 2 gene (CA2) gene (c.232 + 1 G>T). The diagnosis of intermediate autosomal recessive osteopetrosis was established, and allogenic HSCT from his mother, a full-matched related donor (MRD), was planned. The conditioning regimen included Busulfan, Fludarabine, and Rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin. Cyclosporine and Mycophenolate Mofetil were used for graft-versus-host-disease prophylaxis. He Engrafted on day +13, and 95% chimerism was achieved. He is currently doing well without immunosuppressive therapy, now 12 months post HSCT, with normal calcium level and improving visual quality and FISH analysis revealed complete donor chimerism.\u0000\u0000\u0000DISCUSSION\u0000HSCT could be a promising curative treatment for intermediate osteopetrosis and can provide long-term survival. Ongoing challenges in various aspects of HSCT remain to be addressed.","PeriodicalId":20038,"journal":{"name":"Pediatric Transplantation","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140663624","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The body weight of 21 patients (43.75%) was 15 kg or less. The targeted autologous peripheral stem cell apheresis (APSCA) was successfully achieved in 98% of patients. Neuroblastoma patients were younger than the rest of the patients and underwent apheresis after receiving fewer chemotherapy cycles than others and all of them mobilized within the first session successfully. Plerixafor was added to mobilization in nine heavily pretreated patients (18.7%), median two doses (range, 1-4 doses). 11 patients (22.9%) underwent radiotherapy (RT) before mobilization with doses of median 24 Gy (range, 10.8-54.0 Gy). Patients with RT were older at the time of apheresis and had received more chemotherapy courses than patients without RT. As a result, patients with a history of RT had significantly lower peripheral CD34+ cells and CD34+ yields than those without RT. In 17 patients (35.4%), 22 different complications were noted. The most common complications were catheter-related infections (n:10, 20.8%), followed by catheter-related thrombosis in eight patients (16.7%).\u0000\u0000\u0000CONCLUSIONS\u0000Patients who had far less therapy before apheresis were more likely to mobilize successfully. Our study provides a detailed practice approach including complications during APSCA aiming to increase the success rates of apheresis in transplantation centers.","PeriodicalId":20038,"journal":{"name":"Pediatric Transplantation","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140661927","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the use of kidneys from donors under 6 years of age as a possibility to increase the organ pool in pediatric recipients remains a controversial matter. We aimed to investigate whether donor age is associated to the long‐term functionality of the renal graft. Likewise, we analyzed the adaptation of the graft to the ascending functional requirements in the pediatric patient.MethodsRetrospective study of the results obtained in pediatric recipients transplanted with grafts from donors between 3 and 6 years of age, comparing them with those of grafts from donors older than 6 years. Among the variables compared are cumulative graft survival, renal size, need for antiproteinuric therapy, GFR, incidence of rejection, pyelonephritis, renal failure and surgical or tumor complications.ResultsA total of 43 transplants were performed with donors aged 3–6 years, and 42 transplants with donors older than 6 years. Cumulative graft survival at 5 years was 81% for the younger donor group compared to 98% for the older donor group (<jats:italic>p</jats:italic> &lt; .05). At 8 years, cumulative graft survival for donors &lt;6 years was 74%. As for the mean estimated graft survival, it was 11.52 years for the younger donor group and 14.51 years for older donors. During follow‐up, the younger donor group presented greater renal enlargement and need for antiproteinuric therapy. The older donors group had a higher GFR during the first year of follow‐up, which then equalized in both groups.
