Teenagers and young adults with a past of allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation are at significant risk of chronic kidney disease

Allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (aHSCT) remains the treatment of choice for some malignant hemopathies in children, albeit with the risk of long-term consequences, including chronic kidney disease (CKD). In our single tertiary referral center, we retrospectively assessed the long-term renal outcome in a cohort of children and adolescents who had undergone aHSCT for malignant hemopathies between 2003 and 2017. We distinguished glomerular and tubular dysfunctions and assessed the accuracy of the most common formula(s) to estimate glomerular filtration rate (GFR) during standard clinical follow-up. Among the 166 patients who had received aHSCT, 61 underwent kidney functional assessment 1 to 10 years post-transplantation. Twenty-seven patients (44.3%) had a CKD with glomerular impairment, including 20 patients with a GFR
