title: [Cytogenetics in bone marrow transplantations. I. Bone marrow aplasia].
abstract: A bone marrow transplantation has been carried out in a patient with bone marrow aplasia. Besides the cytochemical and haematological tests, the cytogenetic analysis has been performed to check whether the transplantation was successful. In this case the donor was the patient's sister, so that the presence of the chimere has been used as a criteria for judging the conditions of the transplantation. the cytogenetic analysis, furthermore, is suitable to detect other chromosome abnormalities, which can represent a condition of instability of the transplanted cells and are probably an early expression of the transplanted bone marrow.
