The search for cures for the various forms of cancer has long occupied the forefront of medical research. In leukemia, bone marrow transplantation is effecting cure in more and more types of leukemia and in different stages of the disease. This comprehensive review provides the reader with the background and rationale for transplantation, a description of the procedure itself and the potential complications, and a look at the state of the art.
