title: World Marrow Donor Association: a progress report.
abstract: The World Marrow Donor Association was founded in 1988 with a view to establishing guidelines to promote the use of volunteer bone marrow donors for transplants involving patients and donors in different countries. Members have met approximately twice yearly on one or other side of the Atlantic since 1988. A Special Report summarising recommendations and requirements for a standardized practice throughout the world in relation to bone marrow transplants using volunteer donors was published in 1992.
