Abstract
The role of ABO blood group system mismatch on allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) outcomes is controversial since current publications of large datasets are lacking. We retrospectively analyzed 30,487 patients transplanted between 2010 and 2021 using the EBMT registry to assess ABO incompatibility’s effect on non-relapse mortality (NRM), overall survival (OS),…
