Abstract
In Germany allotransplantation of bone marrow or peripheral blood stem cells is presently performed by 34 different teams operating more or less independently, Thus, strategies of immunogenetic donor search, us e of the various tissue typing techniques and policy on acceptable HLA mismatches in related and unrelated settings may vary considerably fr om one transplant centre to another, This paper summarises the results of the first German consensus meeting on immunogenetic donor search f or bone marrow/peripheral blood stem cell grafting, The main goal of t he participating transplant physicians and immunogeneticists was to de fine national standards for the above issues.
