RESUMEN
Pericardial effusion (PcE) is one of the uncommon complications after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Although many causes are related with PcE after HSCT, PcE after HSCT is usually late-onset and can be presented as a sign of acute or chronic graft-versus-host disease in allogeneic transplantation. Previous reports of PcE after autologous HSCT are very uncommon. Transplantation-associated thrombotic microangiopathy (TA-TMA) is a kind of renal microvascular complications after HSCT, which is similar to thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura. The authors report a case of early-onset PcE, which maybe resulted from TA-TMA, after high-dose chemotherapy and autologous peripheral blood HSCT in a 4-year-old child with neuroblastoma.
