Abstract

To improve the infrastructure of hemopoietic stem-cell transplantations in our country, the German Registry for Hemopoietic Stem-Cell Transplantations (DRST) was established in 1998. The present paper summarizes the current status of the DRST and gives a survey of transplant activities in Germany in 1998 in terms of transplant units, transplant types, transplant frequencies and underlying diseases.
