Seminars in Arthritis and Rheumatism, 12/29/08
Barnabe CCM et al. - The incidence of rheumatic disease development after stem cell transplantation (SCT) is unknown, and reported cases may simply reflect those patients who were predisposed to disease development in the first place. However, it raises the question of whether there is an increased propensity to develop autoimmune disease posttransplant.
Methods- Study to describe 3 cases of inflammatory arthritis developed after SCT
- Literature review to determine the association between SCT and the de novo development of rheumatic conditions
- PubMed and manual searches of references
- Case reports detailing the onset of RA, HLA-B27-related spondyloarthropathy, psoriatic arthritis, SLE, vasculitis, eosinophilic fasciitis, antiphospholipid antibody syndrome, as well as polyarthritis related to intercedent viral infection were identified
- Failure of transmission of autoimmune disease from donor to recipient in 2 case reports is also summarized
