After the rejection of stem cell transplantation, even if the rejection is relieved after treatment, it is still possible that the rejection will occur again, although it is not absolute, and the specific situation varies from person to person.
The human body’s immune system has the function of rejecting foreign substances, and a series of rejection reactions are likely to occur after stem cell transplantation, which is a relatively common phenomenon. However, since different patients have different physical qualities, there will be some differences in the specific manifestations of rejection and the time of rejection, which can be categorized into acute and chronic rejection.
1. According to the duration of rejection, the rejection reaction after stem cell transplantation can be divided into two different processes: acute and chronic, in which the acute rejection reaction mostly occurs within 100 days after the transplantation, and is manifested by diarrhea, skin rash and abnormal liver function.
2. Chronic rejection reaction is likely to occur 100 days after transplantation and lasts for a longer period of time, and some patients may even experience rejection again after rejection reaction, which is mainly manifested as skin, mucous membrane, muscle and joint lesions. With the aggravation of the disease, the quality of life of patients will be affected to a certain extent.
Therefore, in order to avoid the rejection reaction after stem cell transplantation, patients need to take immune preparations under the guidance of doctors, such as prednisolone acetate injection and cyclosporine soft capsules, etc., and strengthen the daily care, rest, and go to the hospital for regular review to control the development of the disease.
