High-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous bone marrow or peripheral blood progenitor cell transplantation represents a recognized option in the treatment of solid tumors and hematologic diseases.

Nevertheless, well-defined guidelines for its use in this clinical setting are lacking and there are several areas of controversy.
