title: T cell-depleted allogeneic bone marrow transplantation in a case of childhood idiopathic myelofibrosis.
abstract: An 11-year-old boy developed primary myelofibrosis. Nine months after diagnosis he received high-dose chemoradiotherapy followed by T cell-depleted allogeneic bone marrow transplantation as primary therapy. Sixteen months after grafting the patient is well, with reversal of the marrow sclerosis and no evidence of chronic graft-versus-host disease.
