“…The associative factors found in univariate analysis in our study are the use of IMiDs (p = 0,0006), the femoral KTC insertion site (p = 0,021) and its duration (p = 0,018), the level of G-CSG≥ 15μg/kg (0,014) during HSC mobilization and aplastic phase, the number of perfused CD34 +> 5x106/kg (p = 0,035) and prophylaxis with low molecular weight heparin (LMWH)(p = 0,029).In multivariate analysis, only the absence of LMWH prophylaxis was an independent predictor of thrombosis (p=0.001). Conclusion-Despite the similarity of the overall incidence of thrombosis with the literature, its prophylaxis with LMWHs was the only independent factor of its risk in Algeria, which would have restricted it in daily practice of autografts in multiple myeloma. …”
