ABSTRACT
Bone marrow transplant has become the treatment of choice in a number of disease and its indications are increasing every day. Until recently as it was only available in countries abroad the cost was prohibitive. For this reason majority of patients never thought about it. The facility has now become available in Pakistan at a much lower cost. Because of the limited number of transplant beds it is important that only selected patients should be advised about it. The article reviews aspects to be considered before advising a patient to undergo bone marrow transplant
