Anthony, I'm intrigued. It does seem like a plausible idea.

Clearly there are tested reasons why donor stem cells & marrow are transfused fresh, although as non-donor (for autologous transplants) are not, I think it's definitely worth while to explore your idea further.

"Necessity is the power of invention", and the necessity definitely exists.

I'd be happy to brainstorm further on this. Though I'm curious how you came up with your percentages as they seem high. Also these days in the US, the a perfect match is 10/10 (I think some other countries still use an "8" matching system)
