What outcomes do patients have at Childrens Hospital Oakland?
As of December 2005, the overall survival rate for our patients was 79 percent. Outcomes vary significantly depending on the patient’s underlying disease, the genetic match with the donor and the patient’s disease status at the time of transplantation. Your transplant physician can discuss this question with you once he or she has reviewed your child’s treatment, disease status, source of donated stem cells, and pre-evaluation results.
