Abstract

Introduction:Allogeneic transplantation is the only curative option for patients with high risk leukemias or MDS. Only one third of them have an HLA identical sibling donor and around 60-70% will find an unrelated donor, that´s why haploidentical stem cell transplantation (HAPLO-HSCT) offers a therapeutic option to most of these patients. Myeloablative conditioning (MAC) produce better disease control than reduced intensity conditioning regimens (RIC), but with higher toxicity, rendering long term similar results.
