    Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is a curative option for various pediatric conditions, but it carries significant risks of complications.

  • 2

    Center volume may influence post-transplant outcomes, with high-volume centers potentially benefiting from greater experience in managing complications.

  • 3

    Pediatric transplantation differs from adult practices, necessitating specific studies to assess the center effect on outcomes in children.

  • 4

    The study analyzed data from 6966 pediatric patients across 123 centers, categorizing them by transplant volume over 20 years.

  • 5

    Overall 5-year survival rates showed no statistically significant differences among center categories, indicating similar outcomes across volumes.
