These cells will subsequently proliferate and differentiate to form the hematopoietic and immune system in the recipient. Over the last 50 years, major strides have been made in the field of HSCT, and currently, transplant is performed for multiple indications using a variety of donor sources. Due to wider utilization of this treatment worldwide and improvements in outcome over the past several decades, the current era has seen an increase in the number of HSCTs performed both for malignant as well as nonmalignant disorders.
