Dental developmental complications in pediatric hematopoietic stem cell transplantation patients: A study using CMC clinical data warehouse.

ABSTRACT: This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and extent of dental developmental complications in patients who have undergone pediatric hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (SCT) and identify the risk factors. We retrospectively investigated the clinical data warehouse of the Catholic Medical Center information system for identifying patients who: 1) visited the Department of Pediatrics between 2009 and 2019, 2) underwent SCT under the age of 10, and 3) had panoramic radiographs. Thus 153 patients were included in this study.

All 153 patients had at least one dental anomaly. When group
