This book discusses the aspects of haploidentical transplants and will
shed light on the debates and questions on this burgeoning field and
timely topic. Donor selection, graft failure, minimal CD34+ cell
requirement, and conditioning regimens used for haploidentical
transplants will be written by expert authors dealing with this type of
transplants. Approximately one third of the books' chapters cover logic
and basic aspects; the remaining two thirds of the book discuss clinical
aspects, outcomes, and future perspectives, thus providing a
comphrensive discussion of the topic. Haploidentical transplantation is
extremely timely, rapidly-changing area and increasing its use will
decrease the need for time-consuming, expensive, unrelated donor search.
Moreover, Haploidentical Stem Cell Transplantation brings a set of
clear answers to questions of feasibility, advantages over unrelated
transplants, cost effectivity and outcome..
