For some diseases in children and adolescents, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is the only possible cure. In the KMT outpatient clinic, patients and their families are informed about this form of treatment and, if necessary, prepared for the transplant. Children and adolescents who are discharged from inpatient treatment after a transplant regularly come to the KMT outpatient clinic to receive competent care from the physicians they already know.
