Polish Donor Enables First Unrelated Stem Cell Transplant for Kashmiri Child at SKIMSPreviousNext

A three-year-old Kashmiri child diagnosed with the rare immune disorder Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) underwent Jammu and Kashmir's first Matched Unrelated Donor stem cell transplant at Sher-i-Kashmir Institute of Medical Sciences (SKIMS). Stem cells donated by a Polish volunteer, identified through a German-based donor network, were transported internationally for the procedure. The transplant offers hope after the family lost an elder daughter to the same disease. DKMS waived donor fees, easing treatment costs.
