TransplantationMismatch advantagesAllogeneic bone-marrow (BM) transplantation has greatly improved the treatment of leukaemia. Conventionally, BM transplants are performed between individuals that are matched at their MHC loci (but differ with respect to 'minor' antigens).doi:10.1038/nri804Elaine Bell E...
We also discuss several distinctive advantages of banked third party virus-specific T-cells selected on the basis of their HLA restriction, particularly in the treatment of Rituximab-non-responsive EBVlymphomas and drug refractory CMV infections complicating HLA non-identical transplants....
Vascularized bone graft (VBG) is a form of vascularized bone marrow transplant in which the bone marrow is surgically grafted with its microenvironment intact. Due to the preservation of cellular viability, VBG have significant advantages over non-vascularized bone grafts. Free vascularized fibula graft...

Bone marrow suppression, however, was significantly less in group I than in group II (P less than 0.005). Cy related nephrotoxicity was apparently less in groups I and II than in group III. Estimated US $5,000 in a year can be saved by immunosuppressive treatment in a patient of group ...
Our data demonstrate a clear advantage of the non-CRYO over CRYO auto-HSCT with faster engraftment, lower incidence of febrile neutropenia and shorter hospital stay after the transplantation procedure. These data are especially relevant for centers with high transplant activity or with limited resources...
