RESUMO
The administration of high dose chemotherapy and or radiotherapy with autologous hematopoietic rescue has become a treatment modality with increasing number of indications in a variety of malignant conditions. Improvements in the conditioning regimens and supportive measures used, as well as a more refined patient selection based on prognostic factors, have resulted in progressively better results. The availability of precursor cells from peripheral blood has allowed a faster restoration of hematopoiesis, decreasing the period and intensity of myelosuppression. The following revision gives an updated image of the accumulated experience with this mode of support in malignant lymphomas.
