title: [Collection and long-term preservation of peripheral stem cells].
abstract: The methods of collection and storage of peripheral blood stem cells are described and the harvesting after conditioning with cytokines and/or myelosuppressive therapy is discussed. It could be demonstrated that the combination of cytostatics and cytokines gives the best yield and enables to collect a sufficient amount of peripheral blood stem cells for a successful engraftment after myeloablative therapy with only few aphereses.
