Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is used in children to treat a variety of malignant and nonmalignant hematologic conditions and certain inborn errors of metabolism. Survivors of HSCT are markedly affected by disease and treatment toxicity. Endocrine complications are among the most commonly reported chronic health conditions in this population. In this review, we summarize the most common endocrine late effects after pediatric HSCT. We also highlight the importance of systematic and longitudinal evaluations to achieve early diagnoses and treatment for these conditions and improve the long-term health outcomes for patients who received HSCT as children.Keywords
