Abstract

Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT) is one of the most important methods for treating hematopoietic diseases. Herein, we report a pediatric case developing epileptic encephalopathy after HSCT. We reviewed the literature and summarized the possible mechanism. In the future work of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, we need to avoid possible risk factors as much as possible.
