Description

The use of umbilical cord blood (UCB) as a stem cell source in haematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) has greatly declined in recent years. It has largely been replaced by mismatched unrelated and family donors, facilitated by advances in transplant technologies, including post‐transplant cyclophosphamide to prevent graft‐versus‐host disease (GVHD).
