Abstract
The study was planned to determine the frequency of parental and non-sibling family donor transplants in our center and to investigate the rate of familial donor availability at two HLA-typing laboratories in Turkey. Among 203 patients who underwent hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), 151 (74.4%) received stem cells from siblings, 48 (23.6%) from non-sibling family donors, two (1.0%) from unrelated cord blood, and two (1.0%) autologous transplantation. Of these 48 patients received stem cells from non-sibling family donors; donors were mothers for 26 (12.8%), fathers for 20 (9.9%), and aunts for two (1.0%). The rate of transplants from parental donors was 22.6% in this patient population with increased frequency of inherited diseases (58.1%). Among these 203 patients, there was consanguinity between parents in 60.6% of the patients. Of 833 subjects applying as donor candidates to HLA-typing laboratories, 527 (63.3%) had HLA 6/6 identical family donors. Among 527 full-matched donors, 479 (90.9%) were sibling, 21 (4.0%) were fathers, and 17 (3.2%) were mothers. The remaining 10 (1.9%) were other relatives. The results have shown that the unfavorable factor of consanguinity marriage may increase the availability of fam...Continue Reading
