Pediatrician,  's  Response
at present there is no discription about bone marrow cells usage in its treatment.
Treatments using systemic corticosteroids, chlorambucil, and cyclosporine-A have had variable responses.Combination therapy with azathioprine, cyclosporine-A, and prednisone may hold promise.
