The Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) was founded in 1824 in Charleston. MUSC started a Blood and Marrow Transplant Program (BMT) in 1987 and has performed its 700th transplant for patients with benign and malignant hematological disorders.
MUSC continues its excellence after 80 years in education, research, and patient care. They have the only unrelated-donors program in the state and it is the only location in the state for pediatric cord blood transplants.
Those who wish to donate bone marrow, call 1-800-Marrow-2. Bone marrow donations save many lives. A match for a patient in need is so important. The better the match the better the patient has the chance of having a successful bone marrow transplant.
