Haploidentical Transplantation

Haploidentical transplantation is a type of stem cell transplant used primarily to treat blood cancers and disorders. It involves using stem cells from a donor who shares half of their genetic material with the patient, typically a family member, such as a parent or sibling. This approach allows for a larger pool of potential donors compared to traditional matched transplants. Despite some mismatched genetics, advancements in treatment have improved outcomes and reduced complications, making it a valuable option for patients who lack a fully matched donor.
