Since July 15th, HLA (Human leukocyte antigen) tissue typing of loci A, B and DRB1 has been completed on 473 new blood samples of potential bone marrow and stem cell donors.
The National Registry now lists 12,575 donors that are available to search for matches with patients that are in need of bone marrow transplants.
The World Registry, Bone Marrow Donors Worldwide (BMDW), now has 11,122 bone marrow donors listed from Croatia, as well as 398 donors of cord blood that are available for transplantations.
Thank you to everyone who has helped us expand the Registry of voluntary bone marrow and stem cell donors!
