Blood and Marrow Transplantation: Long-Term Follow-Up Program

One year after your child’s BMT, he or she will be seen in our program and will continue with annual checkups as frequently as needed. Visits include a comprehensive review of your child’s overall health, designed to check the status of the disease for which he or she received the transplant.
