ABSTRACT
As an effective treatment procedure,allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) has been increasingly applied in elderly patients recently.In addition to physiological age,the pretransplantation performance status,comorbidity,nutritional status,cognitive status and mental state have some influences on prognosis of elderly patients as well.Therefore,it is inappropriate to assess the state,predict the prognosis and decide the therapeutic strategy of the patients.Comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA),a more integrated tool of assessment,is being attached more importance now for its value in elderly patients.The establishment of CGA and its application in allo-HSCT of elderly patients will be introduced in this article.
