Objective To investigate the clinic effect of the Salvia miltiorrhiza combined with dextran to prevent veno-occlusive disease after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Methods In the process of the pretreatment of the hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, patients were treated with salvia miltiorrhiza (20 ml/d), dextran(250 ml, twice a day) by venous transfusion and the drugs to protect the liver cell was used in the same time. When the count of platelet dropped to 30×109/L, salvia miltiorrhiza and dextranware stopped applying forever. Results Veno-occlusive disease and hemorrhage has not occurred during 85 times of the hematopoietic stem cell transplantation treated with salvia miltiorrhiza and dextran. Conclusion We conclude that the combined treatment with salvia miltiorrhiza and dextran is safe and effective to prevent veno-occlusive disease after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
