Types of Bone Marrow Transplantation ✅ If the stem cells are taken from the patient himself, the procedure is known as an autologous bone marrow transplant. ✅ If the stem cells are taken from a donor, it is called an allogeneic bone marrow transplant. Often the donors are close relatives like parents, children and siblings.
