The treatment of nephrogenic systemic fibrosis with therapeutic plasma exchange.

abstract：:Peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC) reinfusion appears to hasten hematologic reconstitution following myeloablative therapy. While procurement of PBSC adds apheresis procedures, rapid engraftment could decrease the demand for platelet transfusions. To determine the impact of PBSC collection on workload in our apheresis...
