Transplant Experience |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
This center has been performing allogeneic transplants since
1980 and has been an NMDP transplant center since November 2003.
This center performed a total of 32 transplants, all types, in the most recent year (from June 2008 to May 2009) *The total Non-Myeloblative transplants column shows a subset of the total number of transplants by type. To locate centers that perform cord blood transplants, use the search tool on this site. The NMDP also has Transplants by Disease Charts available showing the number of NMDP coordinated transplants by disease category at each U.S. transplant center. Center-Specific Analysis (Using unrelated NMDP donors)This analysis is based on transplants performed from Jan. 1, 2003 through Dec. 31, 2007, using unrelated NMDP donors. It only includes patients who were confirmed to be either alive or deceased within one year of transplant.
For help with understanding these statistics, please see How to Understand NMDP Transplant Center Statistics. |

Survival by Patient's Age, Disease Type and Stage (Using unrelated NMDP donors)
This data is only based on unrelated transplants performed from Jan. 2003 to Dec. 2007. It also includes one year post-transplant follow-up, through Dec. 2008. The first number represents the number of patients alive at one year post transplant. The second number is a total number of transplanted patients in that particular group.
| CP = chronic phase (1st or 2nd) | BP = blastic phase |
| AP = accelerated phase | CR = complete remission (1st, 2nd, 3rd or more) |
| RLPS = relapse | PIF = primary induction failure |
