title: Transient cyclic neutropenia following GM-CSF in a patient with chronic granulocytic leukemia transplanted with HLA-identical T cell-depleted donor bone marrow.
abstract: Treatment with GM-CSF or G-CSF is becoming widely used in patients with chronic neutropenia, or who are aplastic following chemotherapy or autologous or allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. Recently, some authors have described a phenomenon analogous to cyclic agranulocytosis following treatment with G-CSF in a patient with chronic neutropenia. We wish to describe the same phenomenon in a patient with chronic granulocytic leukemia who received GM-CSF (Sandoz) after T cell depletion in order to accelerate hematological reconstitution.
