Abstract | The use of cord blood to treat haematological malignancies, bone marrow failures and congenital immunodificiencies is rapidly increasing. This increase lead to the establishment of Cord Blood Banks who collect and store cord blood units. HLA typing results of those units are collected in national bone marrow registries, they can internationally be searched for in Bone Marrow Donors Worldwide (BMDW) and NETCORD. NETCORD is a foundation with the objective to unite globally the supply and demand of cord blood units and to reassure the adherence to the required minimal standards. In Slovenija there is no Cord Blood Bank yet, but the need is emerging rapidly. BMDW and NETCORD for Slovene patients can be searched for via Slovenija Donor, the national Bone Marrow Donor Registry. The lst cord blood in Slovenia was transplanted 2004 in Ljubljana. | |
