Abstract

Hematopoietic cell transplantation is a potentially curative therapeutic modality for a wide range of pediatric malignant and nonmalignant diseases. Hematopoietic cell transplantation has evolved over time to include more indications for transplantation and broad-spectrum treatment and supportive care strategies. This review will address the process of transplantation, donor and stem cell sources, complications, and transplantable diseases.
