Abstract

Bone marrow transplantation from HLA-identical siblings has become an accepted therapy for leukaemia and a variety of lympho-haematopoietic disorders. In recent years the marrow of unrelated donors is increasingly used for patients lacking a family donor. In this paper current principles and methods of donor selection are presented with special regard to the search for an unrelated donor.
