ABSTRACT
Haematopoietic stem cell collection from paediatric donors is a common and life-saving practice, as evidenced by the fact that there is a growing annual number of cases of transplants from minor donors among SFGM-TC centers over the last decade. Still, medical use of human tissue from a healthy and underage donor requires proper regulations and medical management. The guidelines below aim at underlining the importance of pondering the legal, medical and ethical aspects of using stem cells from healthy paediatric donors and stress out the importance of obtaining informed consent at the time of assessing HLA compatibility. Combined medical and psychological assessments are required before the donation, as well as one month later and one year later to ensure of the child's physical and mental wellbeing. Bone marrow harvest under general anaesthetics remains the preferred method of collection for children. Peripheral blood stem cell collection should only be considered for children who will not require a central venous access for collection. We aim at offering guidelines centered on the healthy child donating stem cells and his/her wellbeing, and these should be regularly reviewed as medical practices evolve.
