The syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone associated with SCT: clinical differences following SCT using cord blood and BM/peripheral blood

Bone Marrow Transplantation volume 42, pages 743–748 (2008)Cite this article

Abstract

Previously, we reported the syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) as an underestimated complication associated with SCT. In the present report, we analyzed detailed data on a larger number of patients with SIADH following SCT and found different SIADH clinical features following cord blood SCT (CBSCT) and BMT/PBSCT. The median onset of SIADH following CBSCT and BMT/PBSCT was 19 and 46 days after SCT, respectively, and the median numbers of WBC at the onset of SIADH were 1.0 and 3.1 × 109/l, respectively. Furthermore, severe symptoms such as seizures, somnolence and rigidity of limbs were observed only in patients with CBSCT (8/15 vs 0/10). These differences were statistically significant (P<0.01). Although the precise basis for SIADH following SCT still remains unknown, the different features of SIADH observed following CBSCT and BMT/PBSCT may provide important clues to the disease mechanism following SCT. Additionally, we confirmed our previous results that patients with SIADH showed a higher overall survival and event-free survival rates. However, we first suggested that they had some neurological disorders and that neurological sequelae such as developmental delay and seizures would consequently occur.
