Core Tip	We are demonstrating a practical stem cell collection method that provides sufficient stem cells for autologous stem cell transplantation in multiple myeloma patients despite low peripheral CD34 (pCD34) counts and to describe the benefits of this method for patients with limited resources. We present three patients whose pre-collection pCD34 counts were less than 2.5 cells/µL and all successfully underwent stem cell collection in a single trip to the transplant center. This approach may benefit the high number of patients who face limited resources, finances, travel abilities, and social support.
