Overview
High dose chemotherapy and autologous haematopoietic stem cell transplantation is used for varying types of lymphoma, however there is a lac of such experience in treating extranodal NK-T cell lymphoma. Further clinical trials are needed to prove that this therapy is handy and can be used as a method of therapy. Autologous transplantation appears to provide a great survival benefit only for those who attended a complete remission at the time of transplantation.
