Malaysia conducted the first BMT in the country in 1987. Since then, there have been 1155 transplantations performed in a total of eight transplant centres. A majority of the transplantations were allogeneic, including myeloablative and nonmyeloablative. A vast majority of donors are HLA identical siblings. The mean age of transplanted patients was 26 years. The major reason for transplantation was hematological malignancies. The overall survival was 60% for allogeneic transplantation and 52% for autologous transplantation. The most common cause of death in transplanted patients was the underlying disease followed by infection-related complications. Currently, the government is expanding the existing public cord blood bank as well as the local donor registry.
