haploidentical transplants
zahra:
Am thinking of going for this. Wondering if anyone has any information/experience?Apparently it's much more successful now and almost everyone has a haploidentical match.

It's all about success rates, Zahra. If you can find a center with an excellent success rate, it is worth going for. There is not a lot of experience with it, outside of Dr Sodani's long experience, but his success rates have been remarkable in more recent years, so I would expect that some other centers will emulate his success. If you find centers that are doing it, their data on these transplants will be essential in choosing where to do it.
