Memorial Sloan-Kettering's Bone Marrow Transplant Service offers specialized expertise and unequaled experience gained from providing transplants for thousands of children, teens, and young adults with cancer.
The Pediatric Bone Marrow Transplant Service has two primary goals:
- To perform bone marrow transplants successfully, and with a reduced risk of graft-versus-host disease using T-cell depletion.
- To offer bone marrow transplantation in the absence of an HLA-matched sibling, by using T-cell depleted bone marrow or peripheral blood stem cells donated by related HLA-mismatched family members.
