title: [Intensive treatment and autologous bone marrow transplantation in cases of acute leukemia and lymphoma].
abstract: Experience with 19 autologous bone marrow transplantations shows that this approach may produce a high proportion of complete remissions in otherwise resistant tumours. Although most responses are of short duration, they suggest that longterm disease-free survival may be achieved in patients with poor prognosis if treated earlier in the course of disease.
