Presented by NATIONWIDE CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL and CHanneled through Medicaspace :
Bone marrow transplant from a matched sibling or even an unrelated, matched donor has been a life-saver for pediatric patients with a variety of diseases, including various cancers as well as non-malignant disorders such as bone marrow failure syndromes, immunodeficiencies, and hemoglobinopathies.
All too often, however, suitable donors are not available.
Recent advances have enable the use of a parent, half-matched with the child (haploidentical), as a donor. We will review the historical utility of hematopoietic stem cell transplant for a variety of pediatric indications and describe the methods, risks and benefits of using haploidentical donors.
