Donor leukocyte infusions (DLI) are useful for treating leukaemic relapse after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT). We reviewed our experience with eleven patients who received DLI between 1995 and 1997. ⋯ DLI results in CR in most patients with relapsing leukaemia or myelodysplasia after BMT, especially in CML patients. The anti-leukaemia effect is highly correlated with GVHD. This complication and marrow hypoplasia remain major causes of morbidity and mortality of this procedure.
