BMT

thanx bepop,

We had done HLA typing of his siblings, unfortunately none matched, we followed this with doctors, and they said that BMT with unrelated donor at his age is very risky. I have also serched net and the percentage of sucess varies but is arnd 25% for unrelated donor at his age. any suggestions ?


Regards, Neel
