The journal article, peripheral blood stem cells collection by apheresis in very low-weight children with malignant diseases-a single center experience, describes a retrospective study on pediatric peripheral blood stem cell (pbsc) collection in patients weighing under 10kg, between 2006-2021.Until 2012, cobe spectra apheresis system (version 6.1, terumobct, lakewood, colorado) was used.Since then, spectra optia (version 11.3, terumobct) was used.Sixteen apheresis procedures, performed in 13 patients with up to 10 kg of body weight, were analyzed.The study described the following adverse events (aes) - pre-apheresis anemia was present in all procedures and worsened in seven of them (it progressed from grades 1 to 2 in five of the sessions and from grades 2 to 3 in two others).Pre-procedure grade 1 thrombocytopenia was present in one case, and progressed to grade 2 after the collection.Of the remainder, all with baseline normal platelet counts, eight progressed to grade 1 thrombocytopenia.Apheresis-related hypokalemia occurred in one case.Supplementation with intravenous magnesium sulfate was required in one patient with hypomagnesemia and unspecified irritability; paracetamol was also intravenously administered, thinking in a potential pain/discomfort.Mild tremor was presented by one patient, requiring an additional administration of calcium gluconate.Cvc issues.In two leukocytapheresis sessions, both performed in spectra optia and using only acd-a as anticoagulant, the second chamber was not concluded/cleared.In one of them, an excessive pressure warning was observed, resulting in the removal of a fibrin filament, measuring approximately 15 cm, from the lumen of the cvc used for the extraction.Two additional clots were observed in the container.Specific patient details are not provided in the article, therefore, this report is being filed as a summary of events.Neuroblastoma was the most frequent diagnosis.The mean age, at the time of the procedure, was 13.31 months and the mean weight was 8.31 kg).There were nine female patients (69%) and four male patients.The exchange sets are not available for return for evaluation.
