ABSTRACT
We report two cases of secondary myelodysplastic syndrome (SMDS) which followed successful treatment of a primary malignancy with high-dose chemotherapy supported by reinfusion of autologous stem cells. The SMDS was diagnosed 24 months and 40 months, respectively, following autografting. Both patients lived for 7 months after the diagnosis of SMDS. Our cases support the view that there is an increased risk of SMDS/acute leukemia following autologous marrow transplantation.
