In this article, we discuss again the definition, the risk factor and guideline to treat the graft failure, the poor graft function and erythrobalstopenia. Graft failure is a severe but rare complication after hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). Despite disparity in the literature, we defined this complication and discussed the factor risks and recommendation for treatment based on new studies. Poor graft function is also a more frequent complication after HCT. New studies will soon be available to prove or not the current recommendation suggested in this article based on therapeutics medicine or cellular therapy. Erythroblastopenia, is a rarer complication post HCT. Despite anticipation for a better choice of compatibility donor/recipient, some patients still suffer from this complication.

Disorders of Erythrocytes
Erythrocyte disorders can be broadly categorized into two main types: anemic and polycythemic conditions.
A low oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood due to the loss, lower production, or destruction of erythrocytes is termed anemia. Hemorrhagic anemia, for example, occurs when bleeding from an external wound or internal ulcer reduces erythrocyte counts.
