Abstract

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) can provide definitive therapy for patients with primary immunodeficiency disease (PIDD). Modern HSCT techniques and supportive care have significantly improved outcomes for patients with PIDD. This review examines current HSCT practice for PIDD other than severe combined immunodeficiency, and explores indications, risks, and long-term outcomes for this group of challenging diseases.
