| | cytotoxic chemotherapy | Explanation:
My first thought was aplasia-inducing chemotherapy, but the few references to this in English made me wonder. Certainly, in some French texts, "chimiothérapie aplasiante" refers specifically to the induction of bone marrow aplasia, for example, in preparation for a BM transplant. But otherwise it seems to be a general term for what we would call in English, cytotoxic chemotherapy.

Explanation:
aplasia-inducing chemotherapy

Histiocytofibromes multiples éruptifs.
Alors que l’histiocytofibrome est banal, les HCF multiples sont rares. On les a décrits dans des situations de déficit immunitaire comme les collagénoses et maladies auto-immunes, l’infection par le VIH ou la corticothérapie générale. C’est ici le second cas rapporté en association à une leucémie myéloïde chronique. Dans les mois suivant une CHIMIOTHERAPIE APLASIANTE par le busulfan sont apparus 13 HCF. La dépression de l’immunité cellulaire était manifeste puisque le patient a fait à la même période une pneumopathie et une candidose, et qu’il avait une lymphopénie globale, des intradermoréactions négative à la tuberculine et à la candidine et un taux abaissé d’anticorps circulants contre les antigènes de groupes sanguins. Après la récupération médullaire, les HCF ont régressé progressivement en deux mois et aucune nouvelle lésion n’est plus apparue.
Multiple eruptive dermatofibromas.
While dermatofibroma is common, multiple dermatofibromas (MDFs) are rare. They have been described in situations of immune deficiency such as collagenosis and self-immune diseases, HIV-induced infection or systemic corticotherapy. This case report is the second to report association with chronic myelogenous leukemia. 13 MDFs appeared during the months that followed APLASIA-INDUCING CHEMOTHERAPY using busulfan. Depression in cellular immunity was obvious as the patient simultaneously developed pneumopathy and candidosis, as well as presented global lymphopenia, intradermoreactions that did not respond to tuberculin and candidin, and a decreased level of circulating antibodies against blood group antigens. After medullary recovery, MDFs progressively receded two months later without the appearance of new lesions.
