We report the case of a 14-year-old boy with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS/RAEB) which developed following Fanconi anemia. The patient received BMT from an HLA-identical sister. Based on the in vitro CY-sensitivity test, 100 mg/kg of CY was administered for conditioning combined with 6 Gy TBI. Mucosal symptoms such as stomatitis, diarrhea and hematuria were severe, but manageable, and engraftment was successful. The patient has maintained normal trilineage hematopoiesis with > 90% Karnofsky score for 30 months with disappearance of a clonal chromosomal abnormality (47,XY, +i(lq)) which was detected before BMT.
