Abstract
"Medical ethics is governed by the principles of doing no harm to patients and patient autonomy. Advances in treatments and technologies can pose ethical challenges for the physicians but also present opportunities to overcome them. One such area is the field of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Patients with a diagnosis of a hematologic malignancy such as acute leukemia usually undergo a bone marrow transplant with the goal of a cure. "
