[Post-transplant neurological complications: Guidelines from the francophone Society of bone marrow transplantation and cellular therapy (SFGM-TC)].

Neurological complications post-allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation are well-characterized; however, given their variable impact, they remain a significant cause of morbidity. The etiologies for these complications are vast. Causes may be linked to toxicity and infection or could be vascular or tumor-related. Regardless, these complications require early investigation, which is often multidisciplinary and hierarchical. Preventive measures may be considered in some situations. It is essential to respond early and quickly with a diagnosis and the appropriate therapeutic approach when faced with neurological complications. Focusing on the axes of etiology, diagnosis and treatment, this article offers a review of neurological complications post-allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
